The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s look at what’s cookin’ for the next couple of weeks.
The first stretch is a bit of a write-off, to be honest. We’re looking at a solid week of poor conditions, with onshore and cross-onshore winds, small weak swell, and a lot of chop. It’s not until the 28th of July that we get a tiny window of hope.
Tuesday 28th July morning is the first real standout. Lawrencetown Left Point (Nova Scotia) finally cleans up. The wind goes glassy, and we’ve got a 4ft SSE swell with a moderate energy (241) and a period of 8 seconds. That’s not huge, but with glassy conditions, it’ll be clean and fun for a lazy summer session. The water temperature is about average for this time of year.
After that, it’s a mixed bag. The wind gets messy again, and the swell stays small and weak through the rest of the week. The Saturday 1st August morning is another one to pencil in. The wind swings to a light cross-offshore from the NNE, and we’ve got a 4ft south swell showing 271 energy. It’s clean, but don’t expect barrels. The spot is an inconsistent reef and point, so it needs a bit of patience.
Monday 4th August morning also has a clean look with offshore wind from the north and a 4ft south swell, but the energy is only moderate (174). It’s surfable, but nothing special.
The real standout, if you can wait, is Thursday 6th and Friday 7th August. The swell jumps up to 7ft and 7ft, with strong energy (361 and 460), but the wind is onshore from the SSE. This is a classic case of plenty of power but messy conditions. At 7ft, this is getting into expert-only territory, and with the onshore wind, it’s gonna be a battle. This setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
Overall, the best bet is that Tuesday 28th July morning for a glassy, clean little wave. The long-range stuff on the 6th and 7th has potential if the wind gods play nice, but it’s a long way off and the onshore forecast is a worry.
Rusty.
