Updates in hr min s Forecast update imminent
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's break down what the next couple of weeks are looking like.
We're starting off real quiet. The first few days have nothing to ride. It looks like we're waiting until at least Monday the 7th of July before anything shows up. That first pulse has a combined energy of (54) but it's a short period easterly wind swell at 3ft, blown out by a fresh 19 mph onshore wind. Not good. Things get a little better on Wednesday the 8th with a moderate combined energy of (121) and 4ft swell from the ESE, but the winds are still messy.
The standout window, and really the only one worth getting excited about, is around Saturday the 12th and Sunday the 13th of July. Saturday afternoon sees a jump in combined energy to (106) with a 4ft swell from the SSE. The period is short at 5 seconds, but the wind goes clean and cross-offshore from the NW. This is the biggest swell of the forecast period, and while that short period means it won't be the most organized, the clean wind should make it rideable at Linkys (reef and point). This spot is exposed but inconsistent, and it's normally only for advanced surfers. If that size holds, anything over 5ft can be too much for beginners, so this is one for the crew who know what they're doing. Keep in mind the swell is coming from the SSE, while this break loves a NE swell, so it won't be at its best.
Then on Sunday the 13th, we get a tiny 1ft swell but with glassy conditions from the NNW in the morning. Combined energy is just (19), so it's small, but if you're desperate for a paddle, those glassy conditions are rare. The water temp has one reading of 64° at the start, which is about 1° above the norm for this time of year, nothing unusual.
Looking further out into the second week, from the 14th onward it's back to tiny 1ft waves with onshore or cross-shore winds and low energy readings. Not worth planning around really.
Overall, don't expect much. This run is pretty flat and uninspiring. We get one day of moderate, messy energy with clean wind on Saturday the 12th for the advanced crew. The rest of the time, you're better off finding something else to do.
Stay patient.
Rusty.

Information about the Linkys Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Linkys provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Linkys can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Linkys surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Linkys) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Linkys may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
Linkys is 6 km (4 miles) from Hampton. If you plan a vacation in New Hampshire, look for hotels and other accommodation in Hampton. Hampton has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
