The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's break down what's coming for El Muelle.
We're in a slow patch right now. The first rideable waves don't show up until the afternoon of Friday the 24th. Before that, it's flat and frustrating.
Friday the 24th afternoon delivers a small but clean 2ft swell from the S, with a nice offshore wind from the NW at 12 mph. The energy is getting going at (209). It's not big, but it's clean.
The weekend is mostly a dud with weak wind and no power. The water is sitting at a notable 51°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year.
Hang in there, though. Monday the 27th afternoon brings a clean 4ft swell from the SSW with an ideal offshore breeze from the NNW at just 6 mph. Energy pushes up to (312). That's your first real session of the forecast.
Don't let the morning of Thursday the 30th slip by. We've got 5ft of SW swell going nearly glassy with just a light breeze, energy at (356). The afternoon gets bigger, hitting 6ft from the SSW with a massive energy reading of (769), but the onshore wind will chop it up. That morning window is the winner.
Looking into the second week, it gets messy with strong onshore winds. The best bet is the afternoon of Wednesday the 5th of August: a clean 6ft E swell with a good period of 10 seconds and a gentle offshore NNW wind at 9 mph, energy at (565). It's a long way off, so keep your fingers crossed.
The absolute highlight, if it holds, is the morning of Thursday the 6th of August. The forecast shows glassy conditions with a 4ft E swell, period of 9 seconds, and energy at (375). That would be the cleanest, most user-friendly day of the whole run.
So, save your energy until the 24th. The real standouts are Monday the 27th afternoon, Thursday the 30th morning, and the potential glassy perfection on Thursday the 6th of August morning.
