The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at the stretch ahead for Newcombs Hollow.
To be straight with you, this is a tough one. Over the next 16 days, the surf is basically a no-show. We’re looking at a long, flat spell with nothing that qualifies as a decent wave. The entire outlook is filled with "poor surf conditions" and scores that don't get off the ground. Expect a long gap with no real recommendations right from the start. The combined swell energy barely tickles the meter, sitting at single digits and low double digits for most of the period, which is whisper-quiet (1 to 29). It’s a blank run, and for an area like this, that’s not too unusual when the charts go quiet.
Looking at the first few days, Monday the 3rd of August is a write-off. We’ve got a 0.3ft easterly slop with a short 8-second period, and a brutal 34 mph cross-off wind from the SSW. That’s a "near gale" – not for surfing. The water temp is about average for this time of year, so nothing weird there.
Tuesday the 4th is marginally cleaner with a light offshore in the morning, but the swell is still a pathetic 0.3ft. It’s not surf. The afternoon picks up a tiny 1ft, but it’s from the SE with a miserable 6-second period, so it’s just wind chop. The rest of the first week and into the second is more of the same: tiny heights, short periods, and mostly cross-off or onshore winds. The only slight glimmer is on Wednesday the 12th of August morning, where we get a 2ft swell from the ENE, but it’s a 4-second period, which is just bumpy, weak energy (23). It’s cleaner with a light NNW breeze, but at that size and period, you’re not really surfing.
Nothing stands out as a true highlight. There’s no real swell direction matching the optimum NE, no groundswell, no period over 8 seconds worth mentioning. If you’re desperate, the cleanest windows are on the mornings with offshore winds, like Tuesday the 4th and Saturday the 8th, but the waves are too small to even call it a wave. This setup looks more interesting for a kite surfer if the wind holds, but for a paddle surfer, it’s a no-go.
Hang in there. Forecasts can change, but as it stands, this is a 16-day flat spell.
