The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, and I’ve got the outlook for our local stretch. Let’s be straight with you – this is a tough one. The entire 16-day window is a flat spell. There’s just nothing doing for the surf. We’re looking at a solid gap from now through the whole forecast period, all the way out to the 12th of August, with not a single day worth paddling out.
The only break on the radar is Fort Pierce North Jetty. It’s an exposed beach, reef, and jetty setup, and it’s very consistent, but that doesn’t help when the swell is this small. The water temperature is sitting around 84°, which is pretty much normal for this time of year, so no surprises there.
Kicking off on Tuesday the 28th of July, we’ve got a tiny 1.0ft swell from the east, with a weak 8-second period. The combined swell energy is a paltry 12, which is barely a ripple. Winds are light offshore in the morning, but it’s just not enough to make anything of it. The pattern doesn’t change. The rest of the week and into August is a rinse and repeat of tiny, knee-high slop, never exceeding 2ft, and often just 0.7ft. The best you’ll see is a few glassy moments on the morning of Tuesday the 4th of August, but with a 4-second period and a combined energy of just 14, it’s unrideable.
Even the longer period swell around the 1st of August, with a 10-second interval, is only pushing 0.7ft. It’s clean, but there’s no power. The combined energy values are all two-digit numbers, mostly under 25, confirming this is weak, unsubstantial energy. Honestly, this setup looks more interesting for a kite than a paddle, with the consistent cross-onshore winds we see later in the afternoons.
It’s a long, flat run. Keep the board in the car, but don’t get your hopes up. Forecasts can change, but right now, it’s a drought.
Rusty.
