Alright folks, Rusty here.
Honestly, it's a grim stretch ahead for Coombesgate Beach. For the next couple of weeks, we're looking at next to nothing worth paddling out for. The whole run is filled with poor surf conditions and tiny, weak swell. There's a bit of energy that tries to show up around the 18th of July, but with short-period windswell and messy wind, it's just not going to come together for a proper surf.
The water temperature is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, coming in at 62°.
After what feels like an eternity of flatness, there's finally a flicker of hope on Monday the 20th and Tuesday the 21st. It's not a classic, but it's the best we've got. On Monday afternoon, the wind goes light onshore from the WNW and we see swell building to 6ft from the west. The combined energy jumps to 378, which is moderate, but the period is a short 7 seconds and it's a beach and reef setup. That short-period, onshore swell is going to be a messy, closed-out affair – definitely not for beginners, and only the most desperate experts will find anything in it. The crowds are only *sometimes* an issue here, so you probably won't have to fight for a wave, but there won't be many good ones to fight over. Honestly, with that short-period chop and building swell, this looks more interesting for a kite surfer than a traditional paddle surfer. The forecast is a bit more reliable since it's closer in, but the quality is still poor.
That's it. A single, marginal blip of energy at the very end of the outlook. Don't hold your breath on anything before that.
Rusty.
