The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s happening at Hakshtot (Ashdod) over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it’s a pretty bleak run for the immediate future. We’ve got a long stretch of small, weak waves paired with mostly onshore winds that are killing any quality. The combined energy is barely registering, with values stuck in the low double digits like 35 and 25 in the first few days, so don’t expect any push. The good news is the water is a touch warmer than normal at 85°F, which is nice for the body, but the surf just isn’t there.
Tuesday kicks off with glassy conditions in the morning but the swell is a tiny 0.8ft from the WNW with a short 6-second period. By the afternoon, a 12 mph onshore wind from the NNW chops it up completely.
Wednesday sees a brief glimmer: the morning is glassy again with a 0.7ft WNW swell, period creeping up to 8 seconds. The data calls it "surfable but very ordinary," and I’d agree. The combined energy is still weak at 44. It's your best chance for a clean, knee-high wave to mess around on, but don’t get excited. Afternoon wind spoils it again.
From Thursday, the 10th of September, right through to the 16th, it’s a flat spell. The swell drops to 0.4ft or 0.5ft with periods as low as 4 seconds. Combined energy dips into single digits – a mere 6 or 7. The sea is glassy most mornings but there’s simply nothing to ride. This blank run lasts a solid week.
Thursday the 17th of September morning is the next thing worth noting. Swell nudges up to 0.8ft from the NW with a 6-second period, and the combined energy reaches 45. It’s still "surfable but very ordinary" with light glassy conditions. You could squeeze a few small ones on a longboard, but it’s nothing to write home about.
After that, the final week of the outlook goes back to tiny, choppy junk with cross-onshore winds. Wednesday the 23rd of September afternoon sees 0.5ft from the N with a 4-second period and a 16 mph onshore wind – absolutely messy.
So here’s the bottom line: if you have to paddle out, target the glassy mornings of Wednesday the 9th or Thursday the 17th of September for the least-bad waves. Otherwise, leave the board at home. The swell is simply too weak and the wind too shifty to offer anything decent.
Rusty.
