The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, lookin' at the next few weeks. It's a bit of a tale of two forecasts.
The standout is definitely Tuesday morning, September 8th, at Corona Del Mar Jetty. We're talkin' a 3 ft swell out of the SSW, and the water is a warm 73°, which is about 6° warmer than usual – feels like a totally different season. Wind is a clean 9 mph cross-off from the WNW, keepin' the surf glassy. The combined energy is a solid moderate 438, and it's just all clickin'. That's the session to chase.
Tuesday afternoon, the wind kicks up to 12 mph, still cross-off, but the surf quality gets a bit sketchy. The swell holds at 3 ft. Wednesday the 9th, the swell drops to 2 ft to 2 ft, with a long period SW groundswell (16 seconds), but the wind goes cross-shore, and it's just small and bumpy. From Thursday the 10th all the way through the 15th, it's a total write-off – onshore winds, tiny, weak swell, and just poor conditions. That's a solid week of flat water.
Diggin' into the second week, we start seein' a pulse again. From Wednesday the 16th, the swell builds back to 3 ft from the SSW on a 18-second period. The wind is light but onshore, so it's still messy. Friday the 18th, the swell sits at 2 ft from the SW, and the wind goes light and cross-shore, givin' us a little hope. The real window to watch is Monday the 21st of September, when the swell pushes back to 3 ft from the SW, with light cross-shore winds in the morning. The combined energy jumps into the 400s again, which is a solid moderate push. It's a long-range call, so keep an eye on it, but it looks promising. After that flat spell, even a little bit of juice will feel good.
Make the most of Tuesday morning. The rest is a waiting game, but the ocean has a way of turnin' around.
Rusty.
