The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty checkin' in from the coast. Let's talk about what's on the menu for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, looking out the window and into the charts, it's a pretty grim stretch ahead for us. The first recommendation doesn't come until Monday, September 14th, and even then it's a small window. Before that, we've got a solid block of days where the waves are just not cooperating. From now through to the 13th, it's a write-off. The wind is howling onshore from the north or north-northeast, and the swell is a junky, short-period mess at 5ft to 6ft. The energy is there, but it's all wrong. The combined energy readings are moderate at best, hitting up to 590, but it's all blown out and choppy. This isn't paddle surfing, it's a kite session if you're keen.
The only real glimmer in this whole forecast is Monday, September 14th. We're looking at Las Piscinas (North Coast) for a morning and afternoon session. The swell drops right off to 3ft, but it swings around from the NNW with a long period of 14 seconds. That's proper groundswell energy. The wind is completely glassy – zero wind in the afternoon, and a light southerly in the morning, also glassy. The water is 76°, which is about a degree and a half warmer than normal for this time of year, so the ocean feels nice. The combined energy is still decent at 347 and 364, but it's all about that clean, glassy surface. For a reef break, this long-period NNW swell ought to line up nicely. If you can get out, it'll be the pick of the fortnight. Don't expect a crowd-free zone, as it can get busy, but for these conditions, it's worth it.
Tuesday the 15th is a repeat of the same small swell, but the wind comes back onshore, so that window is gone. The rest of the week after that is a mix of tiny, short-period swell and onshore winds. The last few days of the forecast, from the 20th onward, are just more of the same – small, junky waves with a moderate breeze on them. Not much to get excited about.
So, there you have it. One solid day, a whole lot of nothing. That's the way it goes sometimes.
Rusty.
