The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's be straight with you – we're looking at a pretty quiet stretch ahead for Lourdata or Lourdas Beach. The next two weeks are mostly a bust for decent waves, but there is a little glimmer of hope right at the tail end.
The water's sitting at a warm 82°F, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so at least a paddle won't be a shock to the system.
Right now and for the next week and a half, it's a dead zone. You'll see tiny, weak swell with combined energy barely cracking double digits. The biggest problem is the swell period is super short, often just 4 or 5 seconds, which means no power and no shape. Winds are a mixed bag of cross and glassy conditions, but with no swell to work with, it doesn't matter. We're talking about 1 ft or less, if anything at all. Honestly, it's a total write-off for a surf.
Then we get to Thursday, the 3rd of September. The afternoon shows a little pulse of life. The swell bumps up to 4 ft from the WNW with a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy hits 188, which is finally moderate energy. The wind is cross-shore from the WNW at 12 mph, which will put a bit of a chop on the surface. It's still a marginal call, but it’s the first real sign of something.
The best of the bunch, and the only real standout, is the morning of Friday, the 4th of September. That's your window. The swell holds at 4 ft from the WNW, but the period stretches to 9 seconds, giving it a bit more grunt and shape. The combined energy is a solid 297. The wind is light from the WNW at 6 mph, keeping it relatively clean with just a light cross-shore ripple. It's not perfect, but compared to the flat spell before it, this is the best you'll get. The wave direction is a slight mismatch for the optimum SW, but the size and cleaner conditions make it the pick.
After that, it drops right back off into the tiny stuff through the 5th and 6th.
So, to sum it up: a long, flat run until the 3rd of September, with Friday the 4th of September offering the best—and really only—chance for a few rideable waves. It's not a classic, but it's something.
Rusty.
