Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for the next couple of weeks.
To be real with you, it’s a flat spell. There is nothing on offer for the first several days. We’re lookin’ at a blank run from now all the way through to the 23rd of July. That’s a solid two-week stretch with no surf worth paddling out for. The energy is just not there – wave energy values are tiny, barely cracking double digits on the best days, and most are down around 4 to 49 (weak energy). The swell heights are all under 3 ft, mostly tiny little ankle-snappers, and the wind is a mess – cross-onshore or onshore almost the whole time, keepin’ things choppy and blown out. The water is sitting at 88°F, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year (3°F anomaly), so at least it’s nice for a swim.
The only slight glimmer in the whole forecast lands on Thursday, July 23rd. The morning shows some potential at Fifth Street (Miami). We’re lookin’ at a weak pulse of swell up to about 3 ft coming from the SE, with a short period of 4 seconds. The combined energy is still only moderate (32), so don’t expect much push. The wind is cross-onshore out of the SE at 12 mph, which will keep it bumpy and choppy. This is a sheltered spot and inconsistent when it does break, so you’d be scratchin’ for a few close-outs. It’s honestly still a poor surf call – best left for a body surf or a paddle.
So, what’s the bottom line? There’s no standout session. The setup is pretty ordinary for the area – it’s not unusual to have a run like this. Hang tight, forecasts can change. Sometimes the ocean just needs a nap.
Rusty.
