The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s break down the next 16 days for this spot.
You’re looking at a long stretch of nothing much at the start. The first real chance to get wet doesn’t show up until Monday, August 3rd. From Friday, July 31st through Sunday, August 2nd, it’s poor – small, messy, and with rain and wind that just ruin it. Don’t bother.
The standout is Monday morning, August 3rd at Boiling Pot (Noosa). You’ll have a clean 3ft swell from the southeast, with a nice long 13-second groundswell. The wind is a gentle offshore breeze, so it’ll be glassy. The combined energy is 542, which is a solid number. The swell direction is a good match for the spot’s optimum from the ENE. It’s a point break, so that long period will wrap in well. It’s a bit inconsistent, but when it’s working, it’s quality. Water temp is about 69°, which is normal for the time of year.
Tuesday morning, August 4th is also worth a look. It’s totally glassy, with a modest 3ft swell from the southeast at 9 seconds. The energy is 160, so it’s weak, but it’s clean. Not a classic, but a paddle.
From Wednesday, August 5th through to Tuesday, August 11th, it’s a total desert. The swell drops to barely 2ft, with a mix of cross-shore and onshore winds. The energy numbers are in the 40s to 80s, which is very weak. You’re waiting for something to happen.
There’s a little pulse on Friday, August 14th – a 5ft swell from the north, but with a short 6-second period and a cross-shore wind, it’s a marginal one. Not for the faint-hearted.
The end of the run around Saturday, August 15th is clean, but the swell is tiny again.
So, the only real highlight is Monday, August 3rd. The rest is a waiting game. The ocean is just not playing ball right now.
Rusty.
