The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what the next couple of weeks have in store for us.
Honestly, it’s a pretty quiet start. For the first week, we're looking at small, weak swell and a lot of onshore wind. The energy just isn't there. You’ll see a long stretch of "poor surf conditions" from August 24th right through the end of the month. There are a few windows of cleaner conditions in the mornings, but the swell is tiny—mostly around 0.7ft to 1ft—so it’s not really worth getting wet for.
The real story starts to change as we head into September. The first bit of hope shows up on the morning of Tuesday, September 1st. Hanna Park/Mayport Poles is the only break on the radar here. The morning is looking glassy with a light offshore breeze, and while the swell is still small at 1.0ft, the period jumps to a very long 16 seconds. That long-period groundswell will bring some shape, but for a beach break, it might be a bit too straight. The combined swell energy is weak at (95), so it’s not powerful, but for a quiet paddle it could be okay.
Things start to build from there. The morning of Wednesday, September 2nd, has a cleaner cross-off wind from the SSW at 6 mph, with a 2ft swell from the East at a nice 13-second period. The combined energy climbs to moderate (127), and the conditions are clean. It’s still small, but it’s a step up.
The standout is shaping up for Friday, September 4th. The morning session at Hanna Park/Mayport Poles is looking like the best bet of the whole forecast. We’ve got a clean offshore breeze from the WSW at 9 mph, pushing into a 3ft east swell with a 12-second period. The combined energy hits a moderate (203), which is the strongest we see in the whole 16-day run. The wind is offshore, the water temp is a warm 83°F, which is about average for this time of year. This is the one to circle on the calendar. After that, conditions look to degrade again through the weekend and into the following week with onshore winds returning.
So, if you’re after a paddle, wait for that Friday morning, September 4th. The rest of the time, it’s either too small or too choppy to get excited about. The long-range stuff into the second week is promising but much less certain.
Stay tuned, and keep an eye on the sky.
