The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, and I gotta be honest with you. The surf forecast for the next couple of weeks is pretty bleak. We're looking at a long, long stretch of small, sloppy windswell and onshore breezes that are gonna keep the line-up empty and the water messy. If you're not a kiter, you might want to find another hobby for a while.
From now until the 22nd, it's pretty much a desert. We'll see a few bumps here and there, maybe pushing 4ft on the 12th, but it's all short-period, choppy junk. Not worth paddling out for. The energy in the water is just weak, all the numbers are in the double digits or low triple digits. Just a lot of nothing.
Then, on the morning of Tuesday the 23rd, we get a little tease. The wind goes offshore, a solid 25 mph from the NNW, cleaning up the wave face at Fish Pass Jetty. The swell is still tiny, maybe 3ft, but it will be glassy. It's the only time in the first week plus that the place will look any good, but it's still pretty small.
But hold on to your board shorts, because Thursday the 24th is the one. That's the standout. A real groundswell fills in from the ESE, pushing waves into the 6-7ft range. The energy readings jump to 1401 and 1679, which shows you just how much more power is in the water compared to anything else in this forecast. The period is a long 13 seconds, a proper groundswell. Winds are howling offshore in the morning at 31 mph, but it might be a bit much. By the afternoon, it drops to 22 mph and goes cross-offshore, which could set up some clean, powerful lines. This is your window, but it's purely for experts. At over 6ft, this isn't a beginner wave. And being a beach/jetty break, waves this size and with that much push can be tricky and close out. A spot like this prefers points or reefs for that kind of groundswell.
On a positive note, the water at Fish Pass Jetty (Texas) is running a touch warmer than usual for the season, sitting at 87°.
After that one day of excitement, it fades back into the gloom. The following week looks small again with onshore winds coming right back. So, there you have it. A long stretch of poor conditions, one small clean morning on the 23rd, and one real, powerful, expert-only swell on the 24th. It's a long wait, but that one day has some potential for those who are brave enough.
Rusty, out.
