The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's see what mother nature has lined up for us along the coast here.
Well, I gotta be straight with you—this is a tough one. Looking at the whole 16-day window, I’m not seeing a single window where the conditions line up for a decent paddle. The surf just isn't cooperating. The swell is small, mostly under 3ft, and the wind is constantly blowing from the wrong direction, messing up any chance of a clean wave. We’ve got a long stretch ahead with nothing to get excited about.
The only spot we’ve got to look at is Hakshtot (Ashdod), and it’s a beginner-friendly break, exposed to the west. The water is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, sitting at 86°F.
Friday, August 28 through to Saturday, September 12, it’s a flat spell. The swell barely kicks above 2ft for most of it, and the wind is a constant problem. There's a brief moment on Sunday, August 30 where the swell bumps up to 6ft, but it comes with a messy cross-onshore wind and a combined energy of 372, which is moderate. The period is short at 8 seconds, so it'll be a bumpy, choppy mess. Not worth getting wet for.
You’ll get a few glassy mornings here and there, like on Thursday, September 3, Friday, September 4, and Saturday, September 5, but the swell is a pathetic 2ft to 2ft. The energy is weak, with values like 9, 19, and 26. It’s flat calm, but there’s nothing to ride.
This is just one of those blank runs for the area. It happens. The forecasts can change, but right now, I’d say leave the board in the car and find something else to do for the next couple of weeks.
Rusty.
