The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty.
Look, I'm not gonna sugarcoat it. The next 16 days for Damneck Naval Base are a real bummer. We're looking at a long stretch of flat, weak, and messy conditions. There's a solid gap of over a week where there's basically nothing worth paddling out for, starting from Saturday the 25th of July and running right through to the end of the month. The energy just isn't there, with the combined swell energy hanging around a weak 88 or less, and most days it's dipping into the 20s and 30s. Even the water temp is a bit colder than normal for this time of year, sitting at 77°F. It's a rough start.
The only flicker of hope comes right at the very end of the run. On Sunday morning, the 2nd of August, we finally get a "surfable" wave. It's tiny, at 2 ft from the ENE, but for the first time the wind is a clean cross-offshore breeze. The combined energy is still only 65, so it's not powerful, but it's clean. A proper log or a longboard might find a little something. Then again on Monday morning, the 3rd of August, we get similar conditions: clean cross-off wind and 1 ft of swell. It's still not great, but after such a long dry spell, it's the best we've got.
Honestly, for the next week and a half, the setup is so weak and choppy that it's more interesting for a kite than a surfboard. The wind is often cross-onshore or onshore, and the swell is tiny. Don't get your hopes up. The forecasts can change, but right now, it’s a waiting game.
Rusty.
