The Lowdown
Alright, I'm pulling on the wetsuit and looking at this with the same eye. Here's the run-down.
JT Flemming is your only play, a point break that's a dream for beginners but only wakes up once in a blue moon. Staring at the full 16-day forecast, it's a one-hit wonder.
The session to circle is the afternoon of September 8th. The water is a warm 80°F, dead average for this time of year. You've got a 4ft swell rolling in from the ENE, with an 11-second period – that's proper groundswell, carrying 583 units of energy. It's going to wrap into the point nicely, and with a light SSE offshore wind and clear skies, the face will be glassy. For a spot that rarely breaks, this is a gem. You'll likely see a few others in the water, but with the direction matching up with what this point likes and that clean offshore breeze, this is your peak.
And then the plug gets pulled. From Wednesday, September 9th all the way through to Wednesday, September 23rd, it's dead. The wind cranks from the ENE, stays cross-shore, and every single session is marked as "poor surf conditions." The swell turns to short-period slop (5 to 8 seconds), and the wind goes from a moderate breeze to a fresh breeze, and then a strong breeze with lumpy chop. Even when the swell pushes 5ft, the wind is so bad it's not worth looking at the ocean.
Simple story: one golden window on September 8th afternoon. Get it while it's there. After that, you're waiting for a longer run of flat, blown-out days. It's just how it goes at a spot that only whispers to you once in a while.

Information about the JT Flemming Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for JT Flemming provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at JT Flemming can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our JT Flemming surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (JT Flemming) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for JT Flemming may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
