Updates in hr min s Forecast update imminent
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s break it down.
From now until the morning of Sunday the 12th, it’s nearly flat. Tiny waves, onshore junk – just a whole lot of nothing. A couple early mornings like Friday the 10th are dead glassy, but with waves only 0.7ft and a 3-second period, you’re not going anywhere.
Finally, on Sunday morning the 12th, Cala Nova shows some pulse. You’ve got E swell at 4ft with a 5-second period. It’s short-period and the combined energy is only modest at 67, but the wind is glassy from the NNW at 3 mph. That’s your cleanest, most surfable window of the whole forecast. It’s small and beginner-friendly, but it’s what we’ve got.
The rest of that week is just okay – Tuesday morning the 14th has 3ft E swell and 5-second period with a light cross-shore breeze, and the 21st (Tuesday) looks clean again with 3ft and a light offshore wind, but it’s a long way out and still pretty weak.
Honestly, the only day to mark on your calendar is Sunday morning, July 12th at Cala Nova. If you miss that, you’re waiting a while.
Rusty.
