The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here with a look at what’s cooking for Lourdata or Lourdas Beach. I gotta be straight with you – the next couple of weeks are looking pretty flat, so don't get your hopes up for any kind of proper session.
We’ve got a long stretch of quiet ahead. From now (Monday 14th September) right through until the end of the month, the swell is tiny to non-existent. The odd ripple shows up, like a tiny 1ft from the NW on Monday afternoon with a weak cross-on breeze, but that’s barely enough to get a wobbly ride on a foamie. Combined energy is a paltry 7 (weak), so there’s nothing pushing in. The water is sitting at a very warm 84°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, but that doesn’t help the waves.
The pattern stays the same. We see a few clean, glassy mornings – like Wednesday 16th and Thursday 17th – but there’s no swell to go with them. The wind is light and often offshore or glassy, but you can’t surf what isn’t there. This is a real dry spell. The first proper sign of any life comes right at the end of the outlook.
If you are desperate for a paddle, Saturday 19th September afternoon might be the most energetic day, with a combined energy of 16 (still weak) and 2ft from the W at a 6-second period. It’ll be a bit bumpy with a cross-shore breeze, and not worth rushing out for. Tuesday 29th September morning also shows a tiny pulse of 2ft from the NW at 6 seconds, giving a combined energy of 24, but that’s still weak and the forecast is a long way off, so don’t bank on it.
Honestly, for the next two weeks, you’re better off leaving the boards in the car and enjoying the calm. It’s just one of those blank runs. Stay tuned – forecasts can change. This is Rusty, signing off.
