Updates in hr min s Forecast update imminent
G’day, I’m Rusty. Let’s talk about what’s cookin’ at Narrabeen-Alley Rights for the next couple of weeks. I’ll be straight with ya – the start is pretty rough, with onshore winds and messy surf, but there are a couple of sessions that’ll fire if you can wait it out. The big one is Sunday the 19th. That morning brings a clean start with a 1.1m swell out of the ESE with a very long 13-second period – proper groundswell that’ll wrap in smooth. The combined energy is moderate at 649, and with light offshore breezes, it’s gonna be glassy. This is the standout of the whole forecast. That afternoon gets even better: dead calm, glassy conditions, 1.4m from the SE at 12 seconds, with 568 combined energy. It ain’t massive, but it’ll be silky.
Before that, it’s a long stretch of ugly. Saturday the 5th and Sunday the 6th are both junk – strong southerly winds, bumpy cross-onshore slop, and barely any swell. Don’t bother. Monday the 7th and Tuesday the 8th see a big jump in height – 3.0m to 3.5m from the SSE/SE with periods around 10 to 11 seconds, and the combined energy is huge (up to 2816), but the wind is still cross-onshore and it’s labeled as poor. At that size with onshore chop, it’s only for experts, and even then it won’t be pretty. Wednesday the 9th and Thursday the 10th stay marginal – dropping to around 1.9m to 2.0m, but still cross-onshore with a little chop. The water temp is 19°, which is about average for this time of year.
The first real chance at something good comes Saturday the 11th. That morning sees a light NW offshore wind, 1.4m from the SE at 9 seconds, combined energy 339 – clean and surfable. The afternoon stays clean with a WNW offshore and 1.2m. Sunday the 12th is also clean in the morning with a moderate WNW offshore, 1.2m from the ESE at 10 seconds. Nothing epic, but a solid little session.
Then it fades again. Monday the 13th through to Saturday the 18th is mostly tiny slop – 0.3m to 0.6m swell, poor conditions, and plenty of closeouts. There’s a brief spike on Thursday the 16th afternoon with 2.5m from the SSE, but with a strong cross-onshore wind and messy chop, it’s more of a kite-surfing kind of day than a paddle session. So, if you’ve got the patience, hold out for Sunday the 19th – that’s the one. Until then, keep the stick in the truck and watch the horizon.
Rusty.
