The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s happening at Lecount Hollow.
To be straight with you, the next 16 days are looking pretty grim for decent waves. There’s a big gap of poor surf right from the start, and it really doesn’t let up. We’ve got a long stretch of tiny, weak swells and messy winds, and nothing that’s going to get you excited. The first recommendation doesn’t even show up until Saturday the 22nd, and even then, it’s just a marginal window.
The only real standout in this whole period is Saturday afternoon, August 22. The swell is a modest 4 ft from the east, with a short period of 6 seconds, so it’s not going to be a world-beater, but the wind swings light from the NNW, giving us clean conditions (combined energy 92). That’s the best you’re going to get. For a break that’s exposed to the swell, it’s at least rideable. Be aware, the water temperature is about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
After that, it’s a long, sad run of poor surf, with heights barely breaking 2 ft and onshore winds or messy cross-shore breezes. There’s a brief moment on Sunday the 23rd afternoon with glassy conditions and 2 ft from the SE, but it’s still small and weak. Then we hit a long stretch of nothing until the very end of the month. August 31st morning shows a 4 ft SSE swell with clean conditions, but the period is a pathetic 4 seconds, and the energy is still weak (57). It’s surfable, but barely. The 31st afternoon does bump up to 5 ft SSE, but again, short period, and the wind is strong from the south, making it a messy prospect.
September 4th and 5th offer the biggest swells of the run, with 5 ft from the SE on the 4th afternoon, but the period is still only 5 seconds, and the wind is a fresh 19 mph cross-offshore. It’s clean, but the wave quality will be poor, and the energy is at best moderate (120). For a spot like Lecount Hollow, this is more of a wind-swell slop than anything you’d paddle out for.
Bottom line: if you’re desperate, Saturday the 22nd afternoon is your best chance for a few grovelly ones. Otherwise, leave the board in the car and wait for a better forecast.
Rusty.
