Alright everyone, Rusty here. Let's break down what's on the menu at Fifth Street (Miami) for the next couple of weeks.
I have to be honest, it's a tough watch. For almost the entire 16 days, we're looking at tiny, weak surf with cross-onshore winds messing up the surface. The forecast is basically a long stretch of flat to barely-ankle-high waves. We’re talking over a week and a half of pretty much nothing.
The only real glimmer of hope—and it's a small one—is on the morning of Thursday, July 16th. A tiny 1ft swell from the NE with a 7-second period rolls in, and the wind is forecast to go glassy. That means the water will be like a mirror, making even those little waves look clean. The combined wave energy is weak at 13, but with no wind chop, it might be the most pleasant you'll see. Water temps are a touch warmer than normal for this time of year at around 87°F, so it's comfortable.
But for any real rideable wave, you're in for a wait. The prevailing swell is from the SE, which is cross-on at this sheltered spot, and the periods are short. There is no grunt, no power. Given the lack of swell and the persistent onshore breeze, a kite surfer would likely have more fun here than a paddle surfer.
If you're really keen for a session on the 16th, you might score a few tiny rollers. Otherwise, this is a dry spell that's pretty typical for the area when the patterns are like this. Don't pin your hopes on it, but stay tuned.
Rusty.
