The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's get straight into it. We've got a quiet stretch ahead for the local area, so don't get your hopes up for anything epic.
Looking at the whole 16-day window, it's a flat spell. There's nothing on offer that's going to get the heart pumping. The first few days are a write-off, and honestly, the whole run looks pretty grim. We're talking about a long gap of more than two weeks with nothing worth paddling out for. It's one of those times where the forecast is just a blank page for surfers.
The only spot in the mix is Lecount Hollow, and it's a consistent break, but that doesn't mean much when there's no energy. The swell is tiny, mostly under 2 ft, and from the ESE or SE, which isn't the best direction for this spot (it prefers NE). The period is short, often under 8 seconds, so it's weak, windswell stuff. The combined energy is pathetic, bouncing between 14 and 100 (weak energy), which tells you everything you need to know. There's no punch to anything.
The wind is a constant problem. Most of the time it's a cross-onshore breeze, often a moderate to fresh breeze, lumping up the water. The best you'll see is a few mornings with a light offshore or cross-off wind, like on the 20th (Thursday) morning when there's a 2 ft swell from the ESE with a 6 mph offshore wind. It would be clean, but the waves are just too small and gutless to make it a real session. For a beginner, these tiny waves would be fine, but for anyone else, it's frustrating.
The 28th of August (Friday) afternoon sees the combined energy jump to 169 (moderate wave energy) with a 3 ft SSE swell at 10 seconds, but it's being shredded by a 22 mph cross-onshore wind. That combination is a mess. Too much wind for the size of the wave. Honestly, with that setup, it looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
Water temperature? I can't give you a precise number, but it's about average for the time of year, nothing unusual. The best call is to find something else to do for the next two weeks. This is a classic blank run for the area. Forecasts can change, but right now, it's a tough one to swallow.
Rusty.
