The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s in store for us over the next couple of weeks.
To be honest, it’s a quiet stretch ahead. The surf is tiny and the consistency is just not there. We’re looking at a long run of days with very little to get excited about. The only break we’ve got to talk about is Nahum Sokolow (Nahariya). The water is sitting at 85°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year.
The whole first week is a write-off. From Wednesday the 2nd of September all the way through to Tuesday the 8th, it’s flat and unrideable. The swell sits at a pathetic 1ft to 2ft, mostly from the WNW, with combined energy barely cracking 15 to 40. It’s not worth paddling out for.
We finally get a tiny glimmer on Wednesday morning the 9th of September. The swell is still only 2ft from the WNW, with a period of 8 seconds and combined energy of 59. It’s glassy, which is a bonus, but the surf is just barely surfable and very ordinary. The afternoon gets blown out by a 9 mph onshore wind.
After that, it’s back to the same old story. From Thursday the 10th right through to the end of the forecast on Thursday the 17th of September, the swell stays tiny, generally between 1.0ft and 2ft, with periods of 5 to 8 seconds and combined energy mostly under 30. The winds are a mixed bag, with a few glassy mornings that will keep the surface clean, but there’s no power in the water to make it worthwhile.
The best of the whole lot, if you can call it that, is the morning of Wednesday the 16th of September. A light cross-offshore breeze from the NE will keep it clean, with a 2ft swell from the WNW and a 6-second period. Combined energy is 21. It’s still tiny, but it’s the cleanest little wave on offer if you’re desperate for a splash.
The bottom line: there’s no real surf to speak of in this 16-day window. For a spot like this, a blank run is more normal for the area. Keep your eyes on the forecasts, things can change.
Rusty.
