The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here with a look at what's coming down the line for us. First up, the water temp at Nam O Point is sitting at 86.4°F, which is about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
We've got a bit of a slow start to the forecast period. The first few days are pretty flat and not worth getting excited about. Tuesday and Wednesday this week are showing tiny, weak energy (34 to 115) with hardly any rideable waves. It's a bit of a bummer, but hang in there.
Things start to shape up from Thursday the 6th. The swell builds through the morning with a clean 2.6ft groundswell from the ENE at 18 seconds, and glassy conditions. By the afternoon, it's looking even better with 2.9ft and calm winds. The combined energy jumps up (448), and it's expected to be good.
The real standout window begins on Friday the 7th of August and holds through Saturday the 8th. Friday morning is the pick for me. We've got a 3.6ft ENE groundswell with a very long 18-second period, and the wind is light offshore from the WSW. This is a point break setup, and that long-period groundswell is right in its wheelhouse, offering long, clean lines. The energy is strong (759) and conditions should be very good. Saturday morning is almost a carbon copy with a touch more size at 3.9ft and exceptional energy (891). It'll be a bit much for beginners at that size, but for everyone else, this is the time to be in the water.
After that pulse, we drop right back off. From Sunday the 9th onwards, the energy fades to weak readings (67 and below), the swell directions shift around to NW and NE with short, weak periods, and the conditions turn poor. There's a long stretch of flatness from Sunday right through the following weekend and into the middle of the next week. The odd small wave pops up around the 19th of August with an ENE swell and glassy morning winds, but it's still weak (75) and only offering ordinary surf.
So, to sum it up: there’s a solid two-day window coming up on Friday and Saturday (7th & 8th) with excellent conditions. The rest of the 16 days is a write-off, so make sure you’re out there for that window.
Stay stoked.
