The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's cookin' for our local stretch.
To be straight with you, it's a pretty flat spell ahead for Lourdata or Lourdas Beach. For most of the next couple of weeks, we're looking at a whole lot of nothing. The first real chance of a wave doesn't show up until Friday the 28th of August. That's more than a week of flat, glassy mornings and afternoons with a bit of cross-breeze. Water temp is sitting around 83°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so you won't need a thick suit.
The only time the ocean wakes up is on the morning of Friday the 28th. We've got a tiny pulse of swell rolling in from the west, pushing about 4ft. The energy is moderate (114), so there's a bit of push behind it, but the period is only 7 seconds, so it's a weak, short-period wind swell. The wind is light from the east-northeast, keeping the surface clean for the morning session. It's not going to be anything to write home about—just some small, ordinary waves. The afternoon sees the wind swing onshore and get a bit bumpy, so your window is tight.
Honestly, this is one of those stretches where you're better off leaving the boards in the car and finding something else to do. The setup is so small and weak that if the wind picks up, it might be more interesting for a kite than a paddle.
