The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here with the long-range outlook for Noosa’s Boiling Pot. Straight up, this is a tough read for the next couple of weeks. The swell and wind just aren't lining up for any kind of decent session at this spot for a long while.

Looking at the pattern, we’ve got a real flat spell stretching from Wednesday the 2nd right through until about the morning of Monday the 7th. That's nearly a week of nothing worth getting wet for. The water temp is sitting at 68°, which is a bit colder than usual for this time of year.

The first whisper of life shows up on Monday the 7th morning. We’ve got a light offshore breeze from the south with a small 2ft swell from the northeast. The period is a short 8 seconds, so it’ll be weak, but the wind is clean. The combined swell energy is only 86 (weak energy), so don't expect much push. It’s just surfable, nothing more.

Then we’re back into the doldrums. From Monday afternoon right through to the end of the week, it’s almost all poor surf conditions with onshore or cross-onshore winds and tiny swell. There’s a brief moment on the morning of the 12th (Saturday) where we get a clean offshore wind again with a 4ft ENE swell, but the energy is still low at 125 (moderate energy) and it just looks very ordinary.

Now, if you’re patient and can wait, the one standout on the whole board is the morning of Sunday, the 13th of September. The forecast shows a glassy start with a 5ft swell from the ENE with a period of 8 seconds. The combined swell energy jumps to 236 (moderate energy), which is the best we’ll see in this whole window. That ENE direction is right in the sweet spot for Boiling Pot. The morning session looks like the only time it’ll be any good though, as the wind swings cross-onshore by the afternoon.

The next potential highlight comes on the morning of Thursday the 17th. We’ve got a clean, light offshore wind from the SSE with a 5ft E swell. That’s getting up there in size and the period is a short 8 seconds. The energy reading is 274 (moderate energy). It looks promising, but it’s a long way out, so treat it as a hopeful watch rather than a lock.

In short, if you’re after a wave at Boiling Pot in the next 16 days, you’ve got two windows: the morning of Sunday the 13th is your best bet by a long shot, followed by the morning of Thursday the 17th as a maybe. The rest is a write-off.

Rusty.
