The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again, breakin' it down in feet and mph for ya.
Water temp's about 70°, dead average for the season, nothin' wild.
The first week is a snoozer. Monday the 7th starts with tiny 1ft to 2ft NE and ENE swell and cross-off breezes, but the energy is barely a whisper. Tuesday stays weak, with SE wind gustin' to 16 mph. Wednesday morning bumps to 3ft but with a real short period – no grunt.
Then Thursday the 10th hits hard. The swell jumps to 8ft in the mornin' and nearly 10ft in the afternoon from the SSE, with monster energy readings. But the period is short (6-8 seconds), and the wind is howlin' at 22 mph from the SSE. That's a big, messy, blown-out mess at Boiling Pot. Expert only, and even then, it's not gonna be pretty. Friday and Saturday stay in the 6ft to 8ft range but with heavy wind, so the quality is shot.
From Sunday the 13th through Tuesday the 15th, it’s back to small – 3ft to 4ft – and just plain ordinary. Nothin' to drive for.
The one session that stands out is Wednesday the 16th. Morning sees a solid 6ft swell from the SE with a moderate cross-off breeze at 16 mph. The energy is moderate. It's the biggest, pushiest clean window we get. After that, the rest of the week fades fast. By the 19th, we've got 4ft waves but the wind is onshore, terrible.
Second week? Don't get excited. A little bump around the 18th but the wind is cross-on or onshore. The last few days are tiny, short period, and choppy. A real dry spell for the Noosa region.
Hang in there, things always turn around.
Rusty.
