Alright folks, Rusty here, and I'm looking at a grim picture for 47th Street over the next 16 days. There is no good surf on offer. The whole period, from now until the end of July, is a total washout.
It starts off Monday, July 13th, with a pathetic little southeast windswell, only about 2ft. The wind is blowing cross-onshore, making it choppy, and the energy is a weak 34. Not worth a second look. That swell shrinks even further on Tuesday and Wednesday (July 14th-15th), dropping to a measly 1ft. Even though we get clean, offshore winds, the power is completely gone, with energy readings down to 13 and 12. It's like a mirror out there.
The rest of the week is dead. Thursday, July 16th is flat with a glassy morning—nothing to ride. Friday, July 17th is practically flat, with a long 15-second swell at just 0.3ft – just a cruel joke. Saturday, July 18th gives us a bump to 3ft from the south, but with a short 5-second period. The energy hits 57 (still weak), and it's clean, but it's a messy, weak windswell.
Then from Sunday, July 19th onward, it's a desert. The swell vanishes to 0.3ft or nothing at all. There are plenty of clean, offshore wind days, like Sunday the 19th and Tuesday the 21st, but there's no wave to ride. A tiny pulse on Monday, July 20th (2ft from the ENE) is ruined by a cross-onshore wind and thunderstorms.
For a spot that usually sees some action, this is a terrible run. The forecasts can flip, but right now, there isn't a single session worth paddling for. Honestly, this stretch looks more interesting for a kite than a surfboard. A long, hard blank indeed.
Rusty.

Information about the 47th Street Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for 47th Street provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at 47th Street can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our 47th Street surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (47th Street) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. 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. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
