The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – we’ve got a long stretch of flatness ahead. The entire 16-day window is a write-off for any proper waves at Dogmans (Rincon). The first decent surf isn’t showing up until the second week, and even then, it’s barely a ripple.
Right now, through the end of July and into the first week of August, we’ve got nothing. The combined energy is sitting at zero (0) for days on end. We’re talking mirror-flat conditions with glassy mornings and clean afternoons, but no swell to push. It’s a dead spell. Even when a tiny 0.3ft to 0.7ft ripple shows up from the NNE on August 1st, it’s got a short period of 5 seconds and combined energy of just 2, so it’s not worth paddling out for.
The water temp is sitting at a warm 84°F with an anomaly of 1°F, which is about normal for this time of year – no surprises there.
Moving into the second week, there’s a flicker of hope on Monday, August 10th. The afternoon brings a 2ft swell from the NNE with a 6-second period and combined energy of 25 (25). That’s still weak, but at least it’s something. The wind turns offshore from the ENE at 9 mph, keeping it clean. For a spot that’s been dead for over a week, this is the standout of the entire outlook. It’s not going to be world-class, but if you need a paddle and a few small waves, that’s your window.
After that, it’s back to tiny scraps – a 0.7ft to 1ft swell from the NNW through August 11th and 12th, with combined energy in the single digits to low teens. The wind stays light and offshore at times, so the surface will be clean, but you’ll be hunting for knee-high bumps.
Honestly, the whole 16 days is a bust. We’ve got a blank run of about 10 days with no real surf, and then only one afternoon that’s worth even a mention. Forecasts can always change, but right now, it’s best to leave the board at home.
Rusty.
