Updates in hr min s Forecast update imminent
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s call it as it is. The whole 16-day window is pretty flat for us at Hanna Park/Mayport Poles. We’re looking at a long, drawn-out stretch of tiny, weak surf with poor conditions. There isn’t a single standout day in the bunch, so we’re in for a real quiet spell.
Right now, through the first week and into the second, the swell is barely a ripple. Wave heights are mostly hovering around 1ft to 2ft, with a few afternoon pulses up to 4ft, but the combined energy is weak, reading between 2 and 79 – just not enough grunt. The direction is a steady ESE, and the period is short, mostly 8 seconds or less, so it’s weak, crumbly, onshore windswell. The wind is a problem too. Most mornings offer a light offshore breeze, but it swings cross-on or onshore by the afternoon, chopping up the surface. The water temp is about average for this time of year, nothing unusual there.
The first real chance of anything cleaner comes on the morning of Sunday, July 12th, with a tiny 0.3ft swell from the east on a 9-second period, but the combined energy is only 2. Still, a light offshore from the west and clean conditions mean it’ll be glassy. It’s just not enough wave to ride. Then, on Wednesday morning, July 15th, we get a period of flat calm and glassy conditions with no wind, but the swell is still only 1ft. It’s beautiful for a paddle, but not for surfing.
Nothing in this forecast is worth paddling out for. The swell is too small, the periods are too short, and the combined energy never gets into the moderate range. It’s a blank run. Don’t write off the whole season though – these flat spells happen, and forecasts can change. For now, the board stays in the car.
Rusty.
