The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s not sugarcoat it: the next 16 days are a total dud. We’ve got a long stretch of small, weak, and messy conditions coming, with no real surf to speak of. There’s a big gap of poor waves ahead, and no worthwhile option to recommend.
The only break we’ve got is Fish Pass Jetty (Texas), and it’s a tough one. The water temp is about average for this time of year, nothing unusual.
For the first week, from Sunday the 6th right through to the weekend of the 13th, we’re looking at tiny swell. Heights barely push 2ft to 3ft, with periods of just 4 to 6 seconds – that’s all windswell, and it’s gutless. The combined energy is weak, ranging from 11 to 55, which is barely enough to ruffle the surface. The wind is almost always onshore or cross-onshore from the S or SE, making it choppy and lumpy. The morning of Tuesday the 15th sees a brief cleaner cross-offshore breeze from the NNE, but the swell is still only 4ft from the SE with a short 7-second period, and the energy is a moderate 130. It’s clean, but it’s not worth the paddle.
There’s a slight bump around the 12th and 13th, with heights hitting 4ft to 5ft, and the combined energy climbing into the 100s (107 to 152), showing moderate wave energy. But the wind is strong – 25 to 30 mph from the SSE or SE – and the surf quality is still poor. The short period means the waves are weak and close out. For a beach/jetty, it’s just a messy, choppy mess.
After that, it fades into tiny, weak surf from the 16th onward, with heights dropping to 0.5ft to 2ft and energy falling back to single or low double digits. The wind stays cross-onshore from the east. There’s no standout, no solid window, no day that’ll get you excited.
If you’re a kite surfer, the winds on the 12th and 13th are strong and consistent, so that might be a better bet than paddling.
For the rest of us, it’s a blank run. This area can go quiet like this, and forecasts can change, but right now, there’s nothing good on the horizon.
Rusty.
