The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's get straight into it. I'm looking at the Herzliya stretch and the outlook is a bit of a bummer.
Right off the bat, we've got a massive dry spell. The entire 16-day window is a write-off for any decent surf. Haambatia (Herzliya) is putting out a consistent "poor surf conditions" call from the start on Tuesday, August 4th, all the way through to Wednesday, August 19th. There's no good window to paddle out, no sneaky morning glass-off that will save the day. The water is a touch warmer than usual at 84.9°F but with the complete lack of rideable waves, it's a swim-only situation.
The swell is tiny and weak. We're looking at waves of 1.3 ft to 3.3 ft, with a period of 5 to 8 seconds, so it's just weak, short-period wind slop. The combined energy is pitiful, barely cracking 80 (85 is the highest out of the whole period). The direction is mostly out of the WNW, which is the wrong direction for this spot – it's exposed to a W swell, so the fetch is all wrong. Even when the wind goes glassy, like on the morning of the 5th, there's just no swell to work with, so it's a flat, glassy lake.
The wind is a mess too. It's mostly onshore from the NW or cross-shore from the SW, adding chop to an already flat, weak wave. There's not a single standout session in the bunch. The whole run is a blank. Honestly, this is just a normal patch for the area when the conditions don't align. It won't stay poor forever, but this forecast is a total green light to leave the boards at home.
