The Lowdown
Alright, I’m gonna be straight with you. The next 16 days are looking pretty bleak for any decent surf around here. We’ve got a long stretch of nothing really worthwhile, so let’s break it down.
From the start of the period on Monday, August 3rd, right through to the end of the first week, it’s all poor surf conditions. We’re talking tiny 0.7ft to 3ft swell, mostly from the ESE or SE, with periods of just 4 to 8 seconds. That’s weak, short-period chop, not real waves. The wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore, adding to the mess. The combined swell energy is weak, mostly in the teens to low 40s (like 17 to 41), with a brief spike to 168 on Friday morning, August 7th, when the swell hits 5ft from the east, but that’s still poor quality with onshore wind at 16 mph. That Friday is a kite-surfing setup, not paddle surfing.
There’s a gap of about 10 days with no real improvement. The one faint glimmer comes on Monday afternoon, August 17th, at Lake Worth Pier (Florida). We get a small 3ft swell from the SSE, period of 5 seconds, so still short, but the wind swings light SW at 6 mph, cross-offshore, and the conditions are described as clean. That’s the only surfable moment in the whole forecast. The combined energy is 63 – still weak, but at least it’s rideable. The water temperature is about average for this time of year, nothing unusual.
So, if you’re desperate, that Monday afternoon, August 17th, is your best – really your only – shot. But don’t get your hopes up. It’s small, short-period, and barely a standout. The rest of the period is a write-off. For a spot that’s fairly consistent, it’s a rough run, but these things can change.
