The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s kick the tyres on this forecast.
We’ve got a bit of a lull to start. The first week is mostly flat and weak, with a lot of cross-off breeze. The real action, if you can call it that, is a window from Thursday, September 10th through to the following Monday.
The only spot worth talking about is Noosa – Boiling Pot. This is an advanced, *inconsistent* break, so don’t get your hopes up too high. The best shot comes Friday morning, September 11th. We’ve got a 8ft swell from the SE, with a 8-second period. The wind is offshore from the SSE at 19 mph, which is a big positive. The combined energy is moderate (795). This is a proper groundswell pulse with clean conditions, but it’s big at 8ft, so it’s expert territory only. The water temperature is about average for the season.
The day before, Thursday morning, September 10th, is a beast but a mess. A 10ft SSE swell, but with a strong cross-off wind at 25 mph. Loads of energy (868), but it’ll be a washing machine. Only for the brave.
After that, it drops off fast. The weekend sees 5ft to 7ft swell but with cross-off winds, so it’s lumpy. By Tuesday, September 15th, we’re down to a 3ft E swell with a glassy morning. A longboard wave, nothing more.
The second week is a total write-off. From the 15th through to the 23rd, it’s small, weak, and often onshore. There’s a nine-day gap of poor conditions. The only flicker is Monday, September 21st with a fresh offshore wind, but the swell is a pathetic 4ft with a 6-second period. Not worth the paddle.
If you’re an expert, aim for Friday morning, September 11th at Boiling Pot. For everyone else, it’s a quiet two weeks.
Rusty, out.
