The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s headin’ our way.
Well, to be straight with you, it’s a pretty grim stretch for the next couple of weeks. We’ve got one spot, Lawrencetown Left Point, a reef and point setup, and it’s real inconsistent. The water is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year, sittin’ at 64°, which is a nice bonus, but the surf is gonna be tough to find.
The first real chance to get wet isn’t until Monday morning, September 7th, but don’t get your hopes up. We’re lookin’ at a weak 3ft easterly swell with a short 8-second period and not much energy behind it (94). The wind is cross-off from the NW, so it’ll be clean, but the waves are just poor. Not gonna be worth the paddle.
Tuesday the 8th is pretty much the same story, with a tiny 2ft swell and similar conditions. Surfable, but very ordinary. The wind is light from the WNW in the morning, so it’s clean, but there’s just no power.
Things get ugly on Thursday the 10th. A big, lumpy 8ft to 10ft south-southwest swell rolls in, but it’s short period and the wind is a nightmare. A near gale from the SSW will have it blown out and messy. Wave energy is high (576 to 936), but it’s a total mess – more for the kite crowd than anyone paddling.
Friday the 11th cleans up a bit with a 6ft swell from the SSW and a cross-off wind from the WNW. The energy is moderate (386), but it’s still just a marginal forecast. The swell is a bit too short period for that point to really shine.
After that, it’s a long, dry spell. Saturday the 12th has tiny 3ft waves, and then from Sunday the 13th right through to Tuesday the 22nd of September, it’s a whole lot of nothing. We’re talkin’ over a week of flat, weak, or blown-out junk. The energy numbers are mostly in the double digits, barely a whisper.
There is one tiny glimmer way out there. Saturday morning, September 19th, the wind goes glassy, with a light 2ft southeast swell. The energy is weak (64), but the conditions are clean. It’s surfable, but very ordinary. Sunday the 20th has a bit of a gusty cross-off, but it’s even smaller.
So, there’s no standout. There’s no best option. The only thing even close to a recommendation would be the clean, glassy morning on Saturday the 19th, but it’s a real knee-high dribbler. The truth is, the forecast is showing a big blank run for this area, and that’s just how it goes sometimes.
Rusty.
