The Lowdown
Hey folks, Rusty here. Let's talk about the Dromi (Ashdod) stretch for the next couple of weeks. I've got to level with you, it's looking pretty bleak. This is one of those runs where the ocean just isn't cooperating, and you're probably better off keeping the wax fresh.
The water is sitting at about 86°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year. So, a nice warm dip, but the waves are a no-show.
For the first week and a half, from Wednesday the 9th through Sunday the 20th of September, it's a total washout. The swell is tiny, mostly 1ft to 2ft, with a short, weak period of only 5 to 7 seconds. The combined wave energy is in the double digits the whole time, barely cracking 52 on the best day, which is just weak. The wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore, chopping up what little shape there is. We get a couple of glassy mornings on the 12th and 13th, but with only 1ft of swell, it's flat, not glassy. Honestly, the setup looks more like a kitesurfer's dream than a surfer's, with the onshore breeze and those small, jumbled lumps.
We finally get a little pulse on the morning of Monday the 21st. The swell bumps up to 3ft from the WNW, with a period of 7 seconds. The combined energy gets to 86, and the wind is a light cross-onshore from the North at 10 km/h. It's still only "marginal" at best, but it's the first real sign of life. That afternoon gets a bit more size at 3ft from the NW, and the energy hits 110 (moderate), but the wind swings onshore, so it'll be a messy, blown-out affair.
After that, it's back to the same old story. Tuesday the 22nd has a tiny window of 2ft, but it's onshore. The wind does get clean on the morning of the 24th of September with a light cross-shore from the WSW, but the swell is a pathetic 2ft. There's just no power behind any of it.
So, the hard truth is, there's no standout here. The best you can hope for is the morning of the 21st, but even that's a long shot. If you're dying for a paddle, you might find a knee-high crumbler, but set your expectations real low. This is a pretty normal blank run for this area when the swell direction is off. Forecasts can change, but right now, take a break.
Rusty.
