The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Gotta be straight with you – the next couple of weeks for Dromi (Ashdod) are looking pretty grim. This is shaping up to be a real flat spell for the region, with nothing that I’d call a proper surf session for a long stretch.
We’re looking at a big gap of over a week where the waves are just not worth paddling out for. The sea is going to be tiny and weak, with most days showing swell heights under 3ft and a short, weak period of 6 to 7 seconds. The combined energy is mostly in the double digits, barely cracking 100 now and then, which is just anemic. Wednesday the 12th through to Monday the 24th of August is basically a write-off. You’ll see a few mornings with light winds or even glassy conditions, like Monday the 17th morning with a 3ft NW swell and glassy wind, but it’s still just poor surf. The water temp is hanging around 86°F with a 3°F anomaly, so it’s a touch warmer than average for this time of year, which is nice, but there’s nothing to ride.
Now, there is a glimmer of something in the very long-range. On Tuesday the 25th of August, the swell picks up to 4ft in the morning and 5ft in the afternoon from the WNW, with a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy jumps to 198 and then 254 – that’s moderate wave energy, finally. But here’s the kicker: the wind is onshore and choppy, especially in the afternoon with 12 mph from the WNW. The morning is a bit better with a light cross-shore, but the surf is still described as poor. It’s too far out to get excited about, and with that onshore wind, it’s going to be messy. The swell is still a bit short-period and this is a beach break, so it’s not going to be clean. Might be more interesting for the kite surfers than us paddle surfers.
So, what’s the best on offer? Honestly, I can’t point to a true standout. The only time you might get a wave is the morning of Tuesday the 25th, but it’s a gamble. For now, keep your gear in the van and wait for a better forecast. The blank run here is pretty normal for the area when it goes quiet, but forecasts can change, so keep an eye out.
Rusty.
