The Lowdown
Right, Rusty here again with the numbers you mainland folks might prefer.
The story doesn’t change. Up until the 12th of August, the surf is basically dead. Wednesday morning the 12th brings glassy conditions but the wave is barely there – small, clean, but not worth squeezing the wetsuit for. That quiet spell runs all the way up to the 20th. We’re looking at knee-high, short-period NW windswell most days, usually 2 to 3 feet, with plenty of cross or onshore wind. The wave energy is pitiful, all sitting under 100 in most cases.
Two isolated mornings do show clean wind: the 18th, with east offshore wind, but the swell is 2 feet and energy is only 39. The morning of the 23rd also has a clean ESE offshore wind and a 2 foot NNW swell, but again, weak 8-second period.
The only day that really rises up is the morning of Friday the 21st of August. Glassy SSW air, swell climbs to 3 feet from the NW with a reasonable 10-second period. The combined energy hits 257 – finally some proper oomph. This should bring some solid, clean waves, though still a beach break, it’ll be the pick of the fortnight. The water is about 75°, running a couple degrees warmer than average for the time of year.
If you want to surf, pencil in that Friday the 21st morning. Outside of that, the ocean’s not giving us much love.
Rusty.
