The Lowdown
Alright mates, Rusty here. Let’s break down what we’ve got coming.
Right now through to Friday the 1st of August, there’s zilch. Flat as a pancake at Clovelly Bombie – 0.3ft of nothing with garbage wind. That’s close to a week of downtime.
Saturday morning, 1st of August we finally get a pulse. A clean 5ft SSE swell, light offshore WNW breeze at 3 mph. Water’s about 64°F, dead average for the season. Combined energy sits at 411, moderate. It’s a short 9-second period, so the waves will be a bit lumpy, but it’s rideable. This reef is inconsistent, so you’ll be waiting between sets, but it’ll be clean.
Sunday morning, 2nd of August is the pick of the bunch. The swell drops to 5ft but the period bumps to 11 seconds – real groundswell. Energy jumps to 750. Light NNW breeze at 6 mph, cross-off, giving you clean, lined-up walls. This is the morning for the experienced surfer. Crowds can show up, so be sharp.
Things go quiet mid-week – poor small surf, weak energy.
Looking further out, Sunday morning, 9th of August (over a week away) shows a clean 5ft SSE swell, 10 seconds, offshore WNW wind at 9 mph, energy at 442. Worth keeping an eye on.
Monday morning, 10th of August looks solid: 6ft from the SE, 11-second period, 739 energy, and a cross-off NNW breeze at 9 mph. Good clean power.
Then Wednesday morning, 12th of August – this is a big one. 8ft of SSE swell, short 8-second period, but the energy is a massive 1430. Offshore W wind at 12 mph. That’s expert-only territory. Steep, fast, heavy.
The Friday morning, 14th of August also has 7ft SSE swell with offshore wind and 629 energy – again, for the experienced only.
Best bets: Sunday the 2nd for quality, Monday the 10th for size with shape. The big mid-August days are for the brave.
Rusty.
