The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s happening for the next couple of weeks.
We’ve got a real dry spell to start. The first stretch is a total bust, with combined energy in the weak zone, just 2 to 50, and wave heights barely a foot. It’s a long gap of over a week before we see anything worth getting wet for. It’s quiet, but it won’t stay poor forever.
The first real sign of life shows up on the morning of Wednesday, September 9th at Hanna Park/Mayport Poles. A new ENE swell pushes in at about 5ft, with a period of 7 seconds, and the combined energy climbs to 239 (moderate). The wind is offshore from the WSW at 15 km/h, so the waves will be clean and groomed. It’s not enormous, but it’s the first decent option. The water temperature is 82°, which is right around the norm for this time of year.
The big one, the one you’ve been waiting for, is the Thursday, September 10th morning. The swell jumps to 10ft from the ESE, with an 8-second period. The combined energy surges to 1333 (very strong). That is a lot of juice. The wind is offshore from the WNW at 15 km/h, so the conditions will be glassy, offering some clean, powerful sets. But, that’s serious size. 10ft waves at a beach with that kind of energy are for the experts only. Beginners should stay on the sand. The afternoon gets chopped up by a cross-onshore wind, so the morning is the only window.
The rest of the second week sees the swell drop back to knee-high and weak, with a few glassy mornings that aren’t worth a paddle. The standout is the 10th of September morning, but it’s a heavy one. Stay sharp.
Rusty, signing off.
