The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – this outlook for the Damneck Naval Base area over the next 16 days is a pretty grim one. I’ve scanned the charts, and honestly, there’s not a single session I’d be stoked to paddle out for. The overall pattern is flat and blown out, with no real swell energy to speak of. We’re looking at a long stretch of nothing.
The first record shows Tuesday morning, September 1st, with a tiny 1ft swell from the SE at a weak 7 seconds. The combined energy is a measly 19, which is barely a ripple. The water is 79°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year. That’s about the only positive, because the waves are poor. The wind is light offshore from the SW at 3 mph, but there’s just no power in the water to make it worthwhile.
The rest of the first week is a write-off. Wednesday the 2nd and Thursday the 3rd have some clean morning windows with offshore or cross-off winds, but the swell is tiny – 2ft at best, with weak energy (68 and 50 respectively). The periods are short, around 9 to 11 seconds, offering nothing with any punch. By Friday and into the weekend, it gets even smaller and more chopped out. We’ve got a solid gap of several days here with absolutely no reason to get wet.
The one day that even slightly raises an eyebrow is Wednesday, September 9th. The swell bumps up to 4ft from the NE, and the combined energy hits 116 (moderate). But the wind is a strong cross-onshore at 16 mph, making it a choppy, blown-out mess. The period is a short 6 seconds, so it’s windswell junk. The surf quality is still rated as poor, so unless you’re a kite surfer looking for a stiff breeze, this isn’t for paddle surfing.
The entire second week follows the same script – tiny, weak, and messy. A few mornings have clean cross-off winds, but the swell is laughable, with energy values dropping back into the single digits and teens. September 14th shows a puffy 3ft from the north at 4 seconds, but that’s just slop from a different direction, not a real wave.
Bottom line: there are no standouts, no hidden gems, no windows of hope. The forecast is a dud. Put the board away, maybe go for a fish, and don’t hold your breath. Forecasts can change, but this one looks locked in for a while.
Rusty.
