Huzzawouie (Huzzas) Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming up for Huzzawouie (Huzzas). We’ve got a solid run of groundswell on the way, but the wind is going to be the main character in this story for the first week or so. Patience will be key.

The first surf worth paddling out for hits Monday, September 14th. It’s not the biggest day of the run, but it’s where everything lines up. We’re looking at an 12ft swell from the WSW, a long 14 second period, and most importantly, clean conditions with that SE offshore breeze. The water is sitting at 65°, which is about a degree and a half warmer than normal for this time of year – not a huge deal, but a nice little bonus. This is going to be a proper session for experienced surfers only though; 12ft is a solid step up and will push most beginners out of their comfort zone. The combined swell energy is strong at 4686.

Tuesday, September 15th, keeps the quality up. Slightly smaller at 10ft, still from the SW with that same long period. Light, clean winds in the morning and afternoon. It’s still big enough that it’s not a beginner wave, but for anyone with a bit of experience, it’s going to be fantastic.

Wednesday the 16th sees the swell ease off a touch to around 6ft, but the wind gets messy and the quality drops. Not the day.

We then hit a rough patch from Thursday the 17th right through to Sunday the 21st. The swell sticks around, sometimes pumping, but the wind is a mess – mostly strong onshore or cross-onshore, chopping it all up. Friday the 18th has a massive 12ft, 17-second groundswell with strong energy (7133), but that north wind is going to wreck it. It’s a frustrating few days. For the beachbreak setup here, that combination of strong swell and dirty wind actually looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.

Things start to clean up again on Monday the 21st. It’s still a bit mixed, but by Tuesday morning, September 22nd, we’re back in business. Offshore SE wind, 10ft of WSW swell, long period again, clean and powerful. This is another one for the experienced crew.

The last week of the run has some real potential, but it’s further out so treat it with a little caution. Wednesday, September 23rd looks punchy with 13ft of SW swell and a very strong combined energy of 7795. The cross-off wind keeps it clean, but again, this is expert territory at that size. The same goes for Thursday the 24th with 12ft and offshore winds.

The standout potential for the whole run, if it holds together, is Saturday, September 26th. We’re looking at a 16ft SW groundswell with an incredible 18-second period. The combined energy is massive at 14881. The wind is cross-shore but light. This is a huge, powerful, long-period swell. At a reef setup like Huzzawouie, that long period will bring some beautifully shaped, powerful lines, but it’s going to be a big, heavy day. Only for the well-prepared. It could be the best wave of the month if the wind behaves. Sunday the 27th is smaller at 10ft, but the wind swings around and chops it up again, so Saturday is the clear target.

Rusty.
