The Lowdown
Well, grab a seat, or just sit on your board, 'cause I gotta be straight with ya – it's gonna be a long, quiet stretch here in the Focene zone. The next two weeks are looking pretty flat and uninspiring for a proper paddle session.
We’ve got a good 5-day gap right off the bat, from now until about the 9th of September, where there's basically nothing on offer. Tiny, weak ripples with periods that are barely a breath (3 to 5 seconds) and less than 2 ft of height. The energy numbers are in the single digits, literally a 3 or a 4 (3 to 7). It’s clean enough with the morning glass-offs, but there’s simply no push to ride. It's a total bluebird drought.
The first real, albeit modest, sign of life arrives on the morning of Wednesday the 9th. We get a little bump from the WSW with a 3 ft swell, but the period is still short at 6 seconds. Combined energy creeps up to 62 – still weak, but a step up. Then Wednesday afternoon, that same swell builds to 4 ft, period stays at 6 seconds, and the energy cracks 114 (moderate). The problem is the wind swings cross-onshore making it choppy, so it’s not going to be pretty.
Thursday the 10th looks like the most significant swell of the whole outlook, but with a big caveat. The morning shows 5 ft from the W, period at 6 seconds, and energy hitting a moderate 157. That's the biggest number we see. But it comes with a howling 16 mph cross-onshore wind. For a beach break like Focene, that’s going to be a messy, lumpy, blown-out mess. Honestly, that setup is going to be far more interesting for a kite surfer than anyone on a paddle board. By the afternoon it drops back to 4 ft from the NW with lighter wind, but the damage is done.
After that little spike, it’s back to the doldrums. From the 11th onwards, we're looking at tiny waves under 3 ft, mostly with junk periods and onshore winds. There's nothing that comes close to a standout. The whole 16-day window is a write-off for a decent surf.
The water is incredibly warm, about 84°, which is a massive 8° warmer than usual for this time of year. That's a very unusual anomaly, but it won't help the waves.
If you absolutely need to get wet, your best bet is the morning of Thursday the 10th for the most push, but be prepared for a battle with the wind and chop. Otherwise, it’s a long, quiet wait.
Stay patient,
Rusty.
