The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s coming your way at Newport-South Beach over the next sixteen days. It’s a patchy forecast, so we’ve got to know where to look.
We kick off with a rough start. Wednesday the 2nd brings a 8ft SSW swell, but it’s being hammered by a rainy, cross-shore Southerly wind at 22 mph. The water is 57°F, a bit colder than usual for this time of year, and wave energy is moderate (973). It’s a lumpy, choppy mess. Thursday the 3rd looks similar – a 8ft WNW swell under a cross-shore Southerly breeze at 12 mph, with strong energy (1967). That’s more for kite surfing than paddling.
Friday the 4th gives us a small window. A 5ft WNW swell in the morning with a light SE cross-off breeze at 6 mph – clean and workable, moderate energy (782). Then the afternoon turns glassy with a 3ft SW groundswell (18-second period, very long) and an almost calm WSW wind at 3 mph. It’s tiny but clean – a fun little session on a log.
From Saturday the 5th to Wednesday the 9th, it’s a dead zone. Swells are below 3ft, periods drop off, and cross-shore winds dominate. Nearly a week with nothing worth chasing.
Thursday the 10th morning offers a 2ft SW groundswell (17 seconds) with a light offshore from the WNW at 3 mph. That long period can be tricky on a beach break, and energy is moderate (561). It’s a maybe, not a go-to.
Now, the real highlight. Monday the 14th. Morning at Newport-South Beach: a 6ft NW groundswell, 12-second period, and glassy conditions with a Northerly breeze so light it’s barely there. Strong wave energy (1293). That’s a proper groundswell for experienced surfers – 6ft with that period will have plenty of push. The wind will make for clean, lined-up waves. The afternoon turns cross-shore, so get it early.
Tuesday the 15th and Wednesday the 16th bring some 5ft to 5ft WNW swell, but the wind gets messy again – cross-onshore and cross-shore. Thursday the 16th afternoon shows 8ft NW swell, but it’s under a nasty 19 mph cross-shore wind. Nasty and bumpy.
So here’s the short of it: loads of quiet, scrappy days. The one true standout is the morning of Monday the 14th – that glassy, 6ft NW groundswell at Newport-South Beach. That’s your session. Everything else is either small, wind-affected, or just not worth the drive.
Rusty.
