The Lowdown
G’day, I’m Rusty. Let’s have a look at what’s in store for the Noosa region over the next couple of weeks.
Alright, so the outlook is pretty quiet for the most part. The only break that’s showing up on the radar is Boiling Pot (Noosa – Boiling Pot). This is a point break that’s known for being inconsistent, so it’s not a huge surprise to see a lot of days with nothing happening. The water temp is about average for this time of year, nothing unusual there.
The first real chance of something decent comes right at the end of the window. We’ve got a long stretch of small, messy, and wind-affected surf from this Sunday (30 August) right through until the 13th of September. Most of these days are a write-off. There’s a bit of a pulse on the 1st of September with a 3 ft swell from the ESE, but the wind is cross-off and the energy is only moderate (107). Hardly worth getting excited about.
The standout, and I mean the only real standout, is looking like Monday the 14th of September. The morning shows a glassy 4 ft swell from the ENE, with a period of 7 seconds. The wind is glassy, which is a massive plus and will keep the face of the point clean. The combined energy is moderate (189). It’s not a huge swell, but for a point break like Boiling Pot, clean conditions make all the difference. This is the best on offer, but it’s a long way out, so keep a loose eye on it.
Outside of that, it’s a flat spell for the region. If you’re desperate, the 7th of September morning has a clean 3 ft NNE swell with light offshore winds from the SSW, but the energy is low (85) and the period is short (6 seconds), so it’ll be weak and a bit average.
Overall, it’s a quiet period. The only time you’d want to be in the water is that Monday morning the 14th.
