The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s see what’s on the cards for the Noosa region over the next couple of weeks.
We’re starting off real quiet. The first few days are tiny and the conditions are all over the place. The water temp is 69°, which is a touch cooler than usual for this time of year.
The first real chance is Thursday, the 6th of August. The morning has a 2ft swell from the ESE with glassy conditions, but the wave energy is super weak (95). It’s a longboard kind of day. Thursday afternoon turns to junk with a cross-shore breeze.
Friday the 7th morning is a bit better with a clean 3ft swell from the E under offshore winds, but the period is short (8 seconds) and the energy is still weak (99). Nothing to get excited about.
Saturday the 8th stays similar with 3ft from the ENE and clean conditions in the morning. Energy is starting to creep up (122) but still not much.
Now, here’s the standout. Sunday the 9th of August. The morning is looking choice: 4ft of swell from the E with a 9-second period, combined energy of 245 (moderate energy), and the wind is glass. That’s about as good as it gets for a clean, lined-up session at Boiling Pot (Noosa) . The swell direction is from the ENE optimum, which is perfect for this point break. It’s inconsistent, so you’ll be waiting for the sets, but when they come they’ll be clean and well-shaped. Sunday afternoon turns onshore and messy, so make the most of the morning.
After Sunday, the energy drops again. From Monday the 10th through the end of the second week, we’re stuck with small waves, mostly 2ft to 2ft. The wind is often offshore or clean, but the swell is too weak to get the bank working. The energy levels are mostly in the double digits, which is weak.
There is a glimmer late in the run. Wednesday the 19th of August sees a jump in size: 5ft from the E with an 8-second period, and offshore winds. The energy is solid (258) but it’s a short-period swell, which will make for a lumpy, less predictable wave at the point. Still, it’s the best of the second week, and it’s clean. The morning session is the one to aim for.
Other than that, the rest of the month is a waiting game with small, clean but gutless conditions. Not a lot of juice out there.
Stay patient, and get out there Sunday morning.
Rusty.
