The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming up for our local stretch.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – the next couple of weeks are looking pretty flat for Hakshtot (Ashdod). We’re staring down a long gap of poor conditions. From Wednesday afternoon through to the end of the first week, it’s mostly small, weak, and blown out. The water is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year at 84°F.
The first real glimmer of something surfable shows up on Thursday morning, 30 July. It’s not much – a small 3ft swell from the NW with a short period of 7 seconds, and the energy is weak (71). But the wind is glassy, which is a massive positive. It’ll be clean, but the waves will be fat and gutless. For a beginner, this is about as good as it gets right now.
We then hit another dry spell. There are a few mornings with glassy conditions, like the 4th, 6th, 7th, and 8th of August, but the swell is tiny – 2ft or less – and the period is short. The energy is barely there (29, 39, 36, 23). It’s flat, plain and simple.
The best of the whole forecast doesn’t arrive until Monday morning, 10 August. The swell picks up slightly to 3ft still from the WNW, with a period of 8 seconds and a bit more energy behind it (86). The wind is calm, making it glassy. The waves will be rideable, but still very ordinary. Not a standout by any stretch, just the least-bad option.
Tuesday the 11th looks similar. Another glassy morning with a 3ft WNW swell, 8-second period, and moderate energy (88). Again, it’ll be clean, but don’t expect any power.
Overall, if you’re desperate for a paddle, the glassy mornings around the 10th and 11th of August are your only real window. The rest of the time, it’s either onshore wind or no swell. For a beginner, those small clean days are fine. For anyone else, it’s a frustrating stretch.
Rusty.
