The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you. The next couple of weeks are looking pretty flat and pretty sad for most of us. There’s a lot of nothing on the cards, so don’t be rushing to load up the boards just yet.
We’re looking at a long stretch with barely a ripple. The first real chance of anything comes on the morning of Tuesday the 18th, but it’s a tough one. We’ve got a weak, short-period swell pushing in from the WSW at just 3ft and a period of 6 seconds. The energy is weak, reading 52, which is really just a pulse of windswell. The wind is offshore from the ENE, which is something, and it’s clean, but the waves themselves are just ordinary. There’s a risk of thunderstorms in the air, too. It’s not what we want.
After that, the ocean basically goes to sleep. From Tuesday afternoon right through until Monday the 24th, there is nothing worth paddling out for. Day after day of ankle-biters and closeouts. Some mornings are glassy, like Wednesday the 19th and Saturday the 22nd, but there’s just no swell behind them, so it’s a lake out there. You’re better off finding something else to do.
The next bump in the road shows up on Tuesday the 25th. The swell fills in a bit more, hitting 4ft with a period of 6 seconds from the west. The energy jumps to a moderate 147, so at least there’s some push behind it. The morning has a strong offshore/cross-offshore breeze from the SE at 25 mph, which will keep it clean, but that wind is howling. It’s not going to be pretty or organised. Then the afternoon swings to a full onshore WSW wind at 16 mph, and all that potential just gets chopped up. It’s not a day for the average punter; it’s more of a wrestle.
The rest of the week stays poor. Wednesday the 26th has a bit of swell, around 3ft, but it’s cross-onshore and choppy. Thursday the 27th drops right back to nothing. Friday the 28th is similar, a small 2ft WSW swell with a moderate cross-offshore breeze in the morning, but it’s still just not enough to get excited about.
So, here’s the bottom line: if you are desperate, the morning of Tuesday the 18th is your only early option, and it’s not good. The Tuesday the 25th morning is slightly bigger, but the wind is going to make it a mess. The forecast confidence for these is as good as it gets, but the surf just isn’t there. It’s a poor run for the area, and with this little consistency, it’s a pretty normal summer blank.
Rusty.
