The Lowdown
Alright, let’s get this straight. I’ve scanned the forecast for the next couple of weeks, and I’ve got some bad news for you: there’s nothing good coming. Not a single day where I’d tell you to grab your board and head out.
We’re looking at a blank run here. The swell stays tiny and weak the whole time, and the wind does us no favors. It’s the kind of setup where you’re better off finding something else to do.
Looking at the heart of the season, we just don't have any proper swell. The surf is just not there. You’d be scratching around for ankle-biters with no power, and the onshore breezes will chop things up anyway.
Now, let's break it down. The first week, from the 7th to the 14th, is basically a total write-off. We're seeing swell heights mostly between 1.3ft and 2.6ft from the WNW, with periods around 6-7 seconds. That’s weak, short-period windswell. The energy is negligible, often reading barely double digits, like 18 or 25, and even at its best it's only 56. The wind is mostly cross or cross-onshore, which is going to put a bump on it. There’s one morning on the 9th with a light cross-on, but it's still junk. Nothing here to get excited about.
The second week isn't any better. The swell does try to pick up a little around the 17th and 18th, with the height getting to 2.9ft to 3.3ft from the WNW, and the energy climbing to a meager 78 and 96. But it's still short period, around 7 seconds, and the wind is mostly cross-onshore. It's not going to have any push. These aren't surfable waves, just bumps.
So, my honest take is this: save your energy. The water's warm, at 84.9°F with an anomaly of +2.9°F, which is a touch warmer than usual for the time of year, but that’s the only thing going for it. We don't get any quality swell, and the break at Haambatia (Herzliya) is inconsistent at the best of times. This long stretch of nothing is more normal for the area in this kind of setup.
Keep the board in the car, but don't bother waxing up. We'll wait for the next proper pulse. This is a blank run, plain and simple.
