The Lowdown
Hey folks, Rusty here. I’ve got to be straight with you – the next 16 days at Newcombs Hollow are looking pretty grim. This break is usually a consistent little wave, but the forecast is a total dud. Water temp is sitting at 66°F which is bang on average for this time of year, so at least you won’t freeze. But the swell? Barely a whisper. The whole period is a write-off for anything decent.
Saturday 18 July starts off with a measly 0.3ft from the east, 13-second period, but cross-off wind from the south-southwest at 16 mph – surf’s flat and messy. That afternoon gets worse with 25 mph winds and light rain. Sunday 19 July morning stays tiny with 0.3ft, though the afternoon goes glassy with a 3 mph north-east breeze, but still only 0.3ft – you’d be floating. Monday 20 July morning sees a little bump to 1ft from the north-northwest, period a pathetic 4 seconds, and offshore wind from the west at 6 mph – clean but useless. The rest of that week just gets lumpy and cross-shore, with swell trying to build but never reaching anything worthwhile.
The only flicker of hope comes on Monday 27 July morning: a 4ft pulse from the north-northeast, period only 5 seconds, but with glassy conditions – light easterly breeze at 3 mph. The wave comment says “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions” – I’d call it barely surfable. Still, clean and tiny. That afternoon the wind picks up and it’s gone. Then on Sunday 2 August morning, another small window: 2ft from the east, 7-second period, clean cross-off wind from the southwest at 6 mph. Again, “surfable but very ordinary” – maybe a log ride if you’re desperate. But that’s it. The rest of the 16 days are either flat, choppy, or onshore. No standout, no real swell. For a break that’s usually consistent, this is a rough stretch. Hang tight – forecasts can change.
