The Lowdown
Alright, mates, Rusty here. Let’s call it like it is – we’ve got a long stretch of nothing much. The first real chance doesn’t roll in until Wednesday the 9th, and it’s a short-lived window. Brace for a lot of flat, windblown days before that.
The forecast kicks off flat. Friday the 4th through Tuesday the 8th is a total bust. Tiny swell, onshore and cross-on winds, poor conditions. Don’t even bother. The water temp is 20°, about a degree cooler than usual – just a touch chilly.
Then, Wednesday morning the 9th brings the best of the lot at Boiling Pot (Noosa). We’ve got a 1.2m swell from the SE, period 10 seconds, and the combined energy is 378 (moderate). The wind is light from the SE, cross-off, keeping it clean. That’s the one to aim for. The swell direction works well for the point. Just remember, this spot is inconsistent, so you gotta be ready. The afternoon goes downhill with cross-on wind.
Thursday the 10th morning is barely surfable – 0.6m from the SE, offshore SSE wind, but the energy is weak (92). It’s clean, but tiny. Afternoon is a joke – 0.1m.
From Friday the 11th onward, it’s mostly messy. Friday the 11th has a 2.1m SE swell, but the period is a short 7 seconds, and the wind is fresh cross-off. That’s a lot of lumpy, blown-out water – better for kite surfing than surfing. The energy is strong (483), but the quality is poor.
Monday the 14th afternoon shows a glimmer: 1.7m from the SE, period 6 seconds, energy 257 (moderate), clean cross-off wind. It’s marginal, but rideable. Then Tuesday the 15th morning is the last decent look – 1.9m from the SE, period 7 seconds, energy 343 (moderate), light cross-off wind. Getting too big for beginners, but it’s clean. The afternoon flattens out with cross-shore wind.
After that, it’s all downhill through the 16th to the 19th. Small, short-period ENE swell, fresh winds, poor conditions. The 19th has a 1.3m NE swell with a 4-second period – that’s just wind slop.
Bottom line: the only real standout is Wednesday morning the 9th at Boiling Pot. Clean, moderate energy, good direction. The rest is a slog. But forecasts can change, so keep your eyes peeled.
Rusty.
