The Lowdown
Hey folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you: the next 16 days at Lake Worth Pier are a real struggle. We’ve got a long, flat spell ahead with nothing but tiny, poor-quality dribble. The forecast is a blank run for the foreseeable future, and honestly, that’s not unusual for this area during a quiet stretch of the calendar. Don’t get too down – it tends not to stay this dead for long, and forecasts can always shift in our favour.
The first recommendation doesn’t come until Saturday, September 20th, which means we’ve got a massive gap of over a week with nothing worth paddling out for. For the entire period, the setup is plagued by onshore and cross-onshore winds, with a lot of those short, weak windswells that just don’t have the grunt. The combined energy is almost always in the double digits (weak), barely ticking over into the low triple digits on a couple of days, but even then, the quality is flagged as poor.
The one day that teases us is Sunday, September 20th. We’ll see a small bump of NE groundswell pushing 3 ft, with a period of 10 seconds. The combined energy hits 157 (moderate), which is the best we’ll see by a long shot. But here’s the catch – the wind is onshore from the E to ENE, gusting 12 mph, so it’ll be choppy and messy. The water temperature is sitting at 87°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so at least a dip won’t be cold.
Bottom line: there’s nothing here that qualifies as a standout. If you’re desperate, the 20th might offer a few crumbly, shifty lines at the pier, but for actual quality surfing, you’re better off waiting for the next system. This is a waiting game.
Rusty.
