The Lowdown

Alright crew, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s happening at Noosa’s Boiling Pot.

It’s a rough stretch ahead, with a whole lot of nothing for the next week and a half. We’re looking at a long gap of small, weak swell and crummy onshore winds that will keep the place looking like a washing machine.

The first real chance to get wet doesn’t come until the 16th of September. Before that, it’s all tiny waves under 1.0 feet, coming from the east or north-northeast with short, weak periods. The wind is almost always cross-onshore, making everything choppy. The combined swell energy is low, hanging out between 40 and 80 (weak energy), so there’s just no punch.

There’s a tease on the 15th of September. The wind goes light offshore from the south in the morning, but the swell drops to a tiny 1.0 feet from the northeast. It’s clean, but completely flat. The afternoon has a longer period from the southeast (15 seconds), but it’s still only 1.0 feet, so the energy is still very low at 68.

The one standout, and I mean the *only* one, is the morning of the 16th of September. The Boiling Pot picks up a pulse of 2 feet from the southeast, with a period of 6 seconds. The wind is a gentle offshore from the south-southeast. This gives us clean, glassy conditions with gentle offshore and clean lines. The combined energy is still only 89 (weak energy), but it’s the best we’ll see. For a point break like the Boiling Pot, a clean 2 feet with a touch of southeast direction is way better than it sounds. The swell is small, but it’ll be rideable and probably the most fun you’ll have all forecast period. It’s for surfers who can make the most of small waves, but it’s a genuine highlight after a long dry spell. The water temperature is about average for the time of year.

After that, it drops right back to tiny and messy. If you’re keen, the 16th morning is your only real shot. Otherwise, save your energy.

Rusty.
