The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. I'm looking at the one spot on the cards for this 16-day window: Newcombs Hollow.
Honestly, it's a tough stretch. The first week and a half is pretty much a write-off, with a long gap of poor conditions. We're talking from Sunday, the 19th of July, all the way through to the morning of Thursday, the 30th of July, with nothing worth paddling out for. The swell is tiny, the winds are messy, and the energy is just weak. The combined swell energy barely cracks 100 for a brief moment on the 23rd, but even then, the wind is on it and the report says "poor surf conditions." It's a frustrating run of flat, choppy, and onshore slop. You'd be better off checking the wind forecast for a kite session than a surf session during this period.
Finally, there's a flicker of hope on Thursday afternoon, the 30th of July. The wind eases and swings offshore from the WNW, cleaning things right up. The swell is a modest 4 ft from the NE, but the period is a short 6 seconds, so it won't have much push. The combined energy is moderate, but the clean conditions are a major positive. The report says "surfable waves but very ordinary conditions," so don't expect any gems. Still, it's the only window where you might get a few fun, clean runners.
Looking further into the first week of August, it's back to the same story. Tiny, weak swell and a mix of cross-off and glassy mornings, but the size just isn't there. The morning of Sunday, the 2nd of August, is glassy with a 1 ft swell, but that's barely a ripple. The combined energy is a measly 17.
So, to sum it up: the only real standout, and it's a relative one, is the Thursday afternoon, the 30th of July. The offshore wind will make it clean, but you'll be working for a wave on a weak, short-period swell. The rest of the 16 days, you're waiting for a better forecast. It's a classic case of a spot that's exposed to the NE, but the wind and swell just aren't lining up.
Rusty.
