The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – this forecast is a tough one. We’re staring down a long, dry spell with no real waves to get excited about.
Lake Worth Pier is your only option in the whole 16-day window, but honestly, it’s not looking good. The water is sitting at a warm 86°F right now, which is about a degree and a half warmer than usual for this time of year – feels like bathwater.
The entire run from Tuesday the 14th right through to the end of the month is a write-off. We’re talking 16 days of tiny, weak surf. The swell is barely a whisper, with wave heights stuck between 0.7ft and 3ft, and the energy is pathetic – we’re seeing combined energy readings as low as 6, and only hitting 55 at the very end. That’s just not enough to push a decent wave. The period is a mess too, mostly short and choppy, with a few 4 to 5 second windswell bumps. There’s not a single standout in the bunch.
The wind is the real killer. It’s almost always onshore or cross-onshore, blowing from the east or southeast, keeping the surface chopped up and messy. There’s a brief moment on Thursday morning the 16th when the wind goes glassy, but with only 1ft of swell, you’ll be doing little more than floating. For a beginner, the whole period is safe because the waves are tiny, but for anyone wanting a proper ride, it’s a total dud.
If you’re a kite surfer, the consistent onshore breeze and small, choppy waves might offer some play, but for paddle surfing, don’t bother. Stay home, wax a board for next time.
Rusty.
