The Lowdown
Alright, I’ve had a look at what’s coming up for Newcombs Hollow over the next couple of weeks. I’m not gonna sugarcoat it—this one’s a tough read. There’s a real dry spell here. For the first ten days, from Sunday the 2nd right through to about Wednesday the 12th, there’s just nothing to get excited about. The swell is tiny, mostly under 2 feet, with short periods and combined energy readings that are barely a whisper—often single digits or low double digits (like 18, 29, 2). The wind is a mix, sometimes cross or cross-off, but even when it’s clean, there’s no power behind it. The one fleeting chance comes on Monday morning, the 3rd of August. The swell bumps up to about 6 feet from the south, with a period of 6 seconds, and the combined energy hits 215. It’s a moderate bump, but still short-period stuff. The wind is cross-off and strong, so it’ll be clean. That’s your best shot in the whole 16 days, but it’s still not stellar—6 feet with a short period can be a bit lumpy and fat, and it’s getting too big for beginners. After that, Tuesday through Thursday the 4th–6th drops right back to ankle-biters, glassy or clean but with nearly no swell. There’s a glassy morning on Saturday the 8th, but it’s only about 1 foot from the SE with an 8-second period and energy of 10, so it’s a total non-event. The rest of the run through to Monday the 17th is more of the same—small, weak, and mostly clean but not worth getting wet for. The water temperature at Newcombs Hollow is about 67°F, which is roughly 1°F below average for this time of year, so nothing out of the ordinary. It’s a flat spell, plain and simple. I’d say hang up your board for a bit and wait for a better window.
