The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, let’s talk about what’s cooking at Boiling Pot.
It’s a bit of a slow start for the first few days. We’re looking at a stretch of poor surf conditions through to Tuesday the 8th, with tiny swell and messy cross-off winds. Nothing to get excited about.
Things start to change on Wednesday the 9th. The morning brings a small, short-period swell from the SE at 3 ft, but the conditions are still very ordinary. The combined energy is weak (109), so it’s barely surfable.
Then Thursday the 10th arrives and it’s a different ballgame. The swell jumps to 10 ft in the morning from the SSE, with a short period of 7 seconds, and the combined energy is strong (1005). By the afternoon it’s even bigger, hitting 12 ft with a combined energy of 1514. This is serious, heavy stuff. The wind is a cross-off, keeping the surf clean, but the wave state is marginal. At this size, it’s only for experts. The water temperature is 70°, which is about average for this time of year.
Friday the 11th stays solid with 8 ft swell from the SE, but the period is still short (7 seconds) and the wind is a fresh cross-off. The energy is moderate (626). It’s still a powerful, chunky wave, but it’s a step down from Thursday.
The swell drops back over the weekend. Saturday the 12th sees 6 ft to 7 ft, and Sunday the 13th is around 6 ft. The wind stays cross-off but the waves are ordinary and the energy is low to moderate.
The second week is a bit of a letdown. Monday the 14th through to the end of the forecast is mostly small, weak swell with poor conditions. The only standout is Tuesday morning the 15th, when the wind goes glassy. The swell is only 3 ft from the E with a short period, but the glassy conditions could make it a fun, clean session for a longboard or a fish. The energy is weak (117). After that, it’s back to small, choppy, and mostly cross-on or onshore winds.
So, the best on offer is definitely Thursday the 10th for the big swell, but it’s for experts only. The Tuesday the 15th morning is a surprise with the glassy conditions, but it’s tiny. For most surfers, the first half of the week next week is the only real window, and it’s not great.
Rusty.
