The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, and I gotta be straight with you – this is a tough one to write. We’re looking at the next 16 days for Newcombs Hollow, and honestly, the surf is pretty much a write-off. There’s no good swell on offer, and the wind is almost always working against us.
The period starts on Sunday, July 26th, and from the get-go, it’s a mess. The swell is weak, only around 3 feet from the ESE, but with a short period of 7 seconds, it’s got no push. The wind is howling out of the NE at 15 mph, coming straight across the face. The water is a lukewarm 67°, which is pretty average for this time of year. We’re looking at a long stretch of poor conditions. The combined energy is a measly 194 (moderate wave energy), but it’s all cross-onshore junk.
The whole first week is a mix of onshore and cross-shore winds, with swell heights bouncing between 2 feet and 4 feet, but the period is stuck in the 4 to 7 second range. It’s choppy, lumpy, and just plain messy. There’s a spike on Thursday, July 30th, with the swell hitting 6 feet from the E, and the energy jumps to 282 (moderate wave energy), but the wind is screaming from the NE at 25 mph. That’s just a windy, blown-out mess – more for kite surfers than paddle surfers.
We roll into the second week, and it gets even smaller. By Monday, August 3rd, it’s back to 4 feet, but the wind is still on it. Then it drops off a cliff. From Tuesday, August 4th, all the way to Monday, August 10th, we’re looking at swell under 1 feet. There are a few moments of glassy conditions on the 4th and 5th, but with only 0.7 feet and 1.0 feet on offer, you’d be floating on a lake. The energy values are down in the single digits.
There is one single highlight that breaks the pattern. On Thursday, August 6th, the morning shows a clean, offshore wind from the W at 12 mph, with the swell coming from the SE at 0.3 feet. It’s glassy, but there’s no wave. The afternoon of the 10th of August shows a clean cross-offshore wind, but with a tiny 2 feet swell from the S at a terrible 3-second period, it’s not worth a paddle.
In short, we’ve got a 16-day stretch with zero decent surf. Not a single standout. For this area, a blank run like this is more normal than not. It’s one of those times to get the gear sorted, watch the charts, and hope the next system brings something with a pulse.
