The Lowdown
Alright, let me level with you, mates. This is a tough one to write. We're looking at Lourdata or Lourdas Beach, and the next 16 days are pretty bleak.
Out of the entire run, there's nothing that really gives us a proper wave to ride. The score just isn't there. We’ve got a big old block of quiet. The water temp is sitting at 84°F, which is a whopping 7°F warmer than normal for this time of year – that's really unusual, feels more like a bath than the ocean.
The first few days are a write-off. Wednesday the 9th is just a light cross-onshore breeze with small wind ripples, not even enough for a proper surf. Thursday the 10th morning looks glassy, but with a tiny 1ft swell from the WSW at a brief 5-second period, the energy is just 5, so it's basically a lake. That flat spell continues right through until about the 22nd of September. We’ve got days of glassy conditions and clean offshores, but with absolutely no swell to push them. A couple of tiny pulses show up around the 16th and 17th with 0.7ft from the south, but it’s just not enough to get excited about – still scoring a zero on the quality front.
There’s a bit of a tickle right at the end of the period. On the morning of Monday the 23rd we finally see the swell bump up a little to 2ft from the NW with a 5 second period, giving us a combined energy of 12. It’s still a poor surf call, but it’s the best we see. Thursday the 24th morning has a similar 2ft NW swell with a slightly longer 6-second period and 18 units of energy, with a clean offshore wind from the ENE. It's little more than a dribble, but if you're desperate, you might find a tiny, clean shoulder to bob around on.
Honestly, for the entire 16-day window, there’s no standout. If you’ve got a kite, those breezy afternoons with a moderate cross-shore might be more interesting than trying to paddle. For the rest of us, it’s a long spell of flat. It tends not to stay poor for long, but this is a proper blank run for the area.
