Updates in hr min s Forecast update imminent
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – the outlook for Dania South Beach over the next couple of weeks is about as flat and uninspiring as it gets. We’re looking at a real drought of swell. The entire 16-day forecast window is a blank run of tiny, weak, and mostly choppy slop, so don’t get your hopes up for anything rideable.
Right now, and for the foreseeable future, we are stuck with tiny waves. Friday the 3rd of July offers a meager 2 ft NE windswell with a period of only 7 seconds – that’s short-period, weak, and messy. The combined wave energy is sitting at a lowly 32, so there’s barely any push. The wind is cross-shore from the south at 6 mph, which just puts a little texture on it. This is the biggest swell of the whole period and it’s still poor. The water temp is a balmy 86°, which is about average for this time of year.
The pattern just fades from there. For the next two weeks, every session is marked as “poor surf conditions.” We’re talking heights barely cracking 2 ft, periods that are mostly a pathetic 4 to 8 seconds, and wind that is almost always cross-onshore or choppy. The energy readings stay in the single or low double digits (7 to 42). There’s a brief moment on the morning of Sunday the 12th of July where the wind goes glassy – absolutely calm – but with only 1.0 ft of 8-second E swell and an energy reading of 16, you won’t even have a ripple to ride.
After that, from the 13th through the 18th, the outlook gets even worse, with most swell heights dropping to 0.7 ft. The winds stay messy. The only tiny highlight is a clean, cross-offshore wind on Tuesday morning the 14th, but with a 0.7 ft, 8-second E swell, it’s still just flat.
This is one of those times where the forecast says “stay home and wax your board.” There are zero standouts, zero decent waves, and zero days I’d recommend paddling out. For the whole 16 days, it’s basically a complete gap of surf. This area can be inconsistent, and this is a prime example of a blank run that is more normal than we’d like. Honestly, with these tiny, short-period swells and constant cross-onshore chop, it looks more interesting for a kite surfer than for a paddle surfer.
Rusty.
