The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s coming up for our local stretch.
Honestly, the next week and a half is looking pretty flat and quiet. Don’t get your hopes up for anything special. We’ve got a long run of tiny, weak waves and a whole lot of onshore wind messing things up. It’s a tough stretch for any real surfing.
The first hint of something worth paddling out for shows up around Tuesday morning, September 8th, at Hakshtot (Ashdod). We’re talking about a tiny 0.7m (2ft) swell from the WNW, with a short period of 7 seconds. The wave energy is pretty weak, sitting at just 40. The only saving grace is that it will be absolutely glassy, with no wind at all. You’ll find clean, small surf, but it’s going to be very ordinary. This spot is exposed to the W, so the swell direction isn't perfect, but the glassy conditions make it the best we’ve seen in a while. Expect crowds here.
The water is reading 30° (85°F), which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year.
After that, things go back to being pretty sad. There are a couple more mornings with glassy conditions and tiny waves, but the size just isn’t there.
Now, looking way ahead to the second week, there’s something finally brewing for Tuesday, September 15th. The morning is the first time we see a bit of size, with a 0.9m (3ft) swell from the WNW and period of 7 seconds, pushing combined energy up to 96. It’s still marginal, but it’s the most energy we’ve seen. The wind is light onshore, so it’s not perfect. The following days keep that swell height around the 1.0m to 1.1m (3ft to 4ft) mark, with the morning of Wednesday, September 16th looking the pick of the bunch. You’ll get a 1.1m (4ft) swell from the NW, a 7-second period, and flat, glassy conditions. The combined energy is a moderate 105, so there is some push there. It’s still not a standout by any means, but if you’re desperate, that Wednesday morning (16th) might serve up a few decent, clean waves before the afternoon wind kicks in.
Bottom line: this is a poor run. Don’t plan your life around it. The best advice is to wait and see if the forecasts change for the better.
Rusty.
