The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here with a look at what's coming up for Fort Pierce North Jetty (Fort-Pierce-North-Jetty). I gotta be straight with you – this is a tough stretch. The entire 16-day window is a write-off for any decent surf. There are no good recommendations to be found, so let's get the bad news out of the way early.
From now, right through to the 18th of September, we are looking at a blank run. The forecast shows nothing but "poor surf conditions" every single day. Small, weak swell and onshore winds are the story. The combined energy barely gets out of the double digits for most of the first week, with readings well under 100 (40), (45), (25)... it's just weak. There's no real kicker of a swell coming through to save us. This is just one of those spells where the ocean is flat, the wind is messy, and you're better off finding something else to do.
The only notable event in the whole outlook is a pulse of swell that shows up around the 9th of September. We'll see the swell height bump up to 5ft and the combined energy jumps way up to (561) – that's a moderate kick of energy – but it's a total letdown because it's coming with a stiff east onshore wind. That poor surf quality tag sticks, and it's what we call a wind-affected mess. No good for anyone.
The water temperature anomaly isn't mentioned here so I'll skip that. For the most part, the winds are cross-onshore or directly onshore, which just chops up any chance of a clean wave. The swell period is consistently short, mostly 4 to 8 seconds, meaning weak, fat, and disorganized waves.
Honestly, it's a grim outlook. Don't bother paddling out. The forecast can always change, but as it stands, the ocean's not giving us a thing. The whole setup is more interesting for a kite surfer if the wind gets strong enough than for a paddle surfer. Sorry, folks.
Rusty.
