The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's be straight with you – this forecast for the Focene area is a pretty grim stretch for anyone looking to get wet. We're looking at a 16-day window that's mostly a write-off, so don't get your hopes up too early.
The water is sitting at a very unusual 84°, which is a whopping 8° warmer than normal for this time of year. That's a real oddity, something you don't feel every day. But the warmth doesn't make up for the lack of push.
We kick off on Thursday, September 3rd, with a tiny 2 ft swell from the west, but it's messy and onshore. Not worth a look. The next few days are a ghost town with flat spells and nothing but glassy mornings that won't produce a ripple. You'll see a few mornings with a light NE breeze and clean conditions, but with practically no swell height, it's just a flat, pretty lake. There's a solid gap of nothing worth riding from the 3rd all the way through to the morning of Wednesday, September 9th.
That Wednesday morning, the 9th, we finally see a pulse of energy. The swell bumps up to 4 ft from the WSW with a period of 6 seconds, and the combined energy hits 80 (moderate wave energy). But the wind is a cross-onshore SSW at 12 mph, making it choppy and messy. By the afternoon, the swell jumps to 6 ft and the energy rockets to 316 (strong wave energy), but the wind swings to a fresh SW at 19 mph, right onshore. This is a lumpy, blown-out mess. For a beach break like Focene, that's not a surfer's friend; that wind and size combo looks way more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. It's also over 5 ft, so it's already too much for beginners.
The one and only true standout, and I mean the only one, is the morning of Saturday, September 12th. The swell is a modest 3 ft from the WSW with a 6-second period, and the combined energy is a weak 40. But the wind is a light NE breeze at 6 mph, keeping it clean and cross-off. The report says "surfable waves but very ordinary conditions" – but trust me, in this 16-day window, that's the gold medal. For a beginner-friendly break like Focene that's fairly consistent, the clean conditions make it the pick of a very poor bunch. It's small, it's weak, but it's rideable and clean. After that, it fades back into flatness and onshore trash for the rest of the outlook.
So, there you have it. If you're desperate, be on the water Saturday the 12th. Otherwise, keep the board in the car and the wax in the cupboard.
Rusty.
