Alright, Rusty here. Let's get into it.
Well, I gotta be straight with you – right now, 47th Street is looking pretty flat. There's no real swell to speak of for the start of this forecast. We're looking at a long, quiet run with nothing rideable for the first couple of weeks. The water's warm, 74°, which is much warmer than usual for this time of year, but that’s about the only thing going for us. The swell energy is just weak, barely registering above 10 or 20 (13 on Friday morning). It's a tough stretch.
We finally see a little bump of energy on the 18th of July, a Saturday. The swell starts to push up to 4ft from the S, with a short period of 5-6 seconds. The combined energy climbs to 97 on the morning and then 121 in the afternoon – finally some moderate wave energy. The morning looks cleaner with a cross-offshore wind from the SSW at 12 mph. The afternoon gets messier with a strong cross-shore wind at 19 mph making things lumpy.
Even then, the quality is marked as poor. The swell is small and short-period, so it’s not going to be organized. The best bet would be the Saturday morning session, but honestly, don't get your hopes up. This isn't a standout; it's just the only window with any pulse. This is one of those times where you just have to wait for a better forecast.

A general guide to surfing at 47th Street can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu.

Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for 47th Street may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself.
