The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty checkin' in from the Sunshine Coast.
We've got a bit of a mixed bag over the next two weeks, so let's cut straight to the chase. The real standout here is Boiling Pot (Noosa), and it's not even close. It's going to be a ripper, but you've gotta be patient and pick your days.
The first pulse of decent energy hits us on Wednesday, the 22nd of July. The swell is a solid 5.6ft out of the East, with a moderate 9-second period, and the combined energy is a solid moderate (725). The wind is a cross-off from the SE, so it'll be clean. This is the best surf on offer in the whole window. The water is sitting at 69.1°, which is pretty normal for this time of year. Thursday morning, the 23rd, is still looking good with a smaller 4.3ft east swell, but the wind swings to a clean offshore from the SSW. That's a beautiful call for the morning session. The crowds at Boiling Pot are often an issue, but for waves this good, it's just part of the deal.
There's a bit of a lull through the end of July, with mostly small, weak swell and poor conditions. It's a bit of a flat spell, honestly. The swell drops right off, with wave energy dipping into the double digits (54) on Sunday the 26th. You'll be sitting on your board for a while.
Then, hang tight for the 31st of July. The long-range forecast is looking promising. We see another pulse of swell coming in at 5.9ft from the SE on Friday morning, with a 9-second period and a strong moderate energy (521). The wind is light and cross-off from the ESE. The afternoon holds similar energy (534) with a 10-second period. This is another big session to mark on the calendar. Into the first week of August, Saturday the 1st keeps the consistent 5.2ft SE swell rolling with light offshore winds in the morning. Sunday the 2nd is looking glassy with a light 4.3ft SE swell, making for a clean, smaller day.
After that, the forecast gets a bit shaky again with a drop in size and quality, but for now, lock in the 22nd and the 31st of July. That's the gold.
Short Range ForecastMostly dry. Warm (max 20°C on Thu morning, min 13°C on Fri night). Winds increasing (calm on Wed night, fresh winds from the SSE by Fri afternoon). | Days 4-6 Weather SummaryLight rain (total 5mm), mostly falling on Mon night. Very mild (max 18°C on Mon afternoon, min 13°C on Sat night). Wind will be generally light. | ||||||||||||||||||||
