The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty looking at the forecast for the one spot on the radar: Newport - The Peak.
The next week and a half has a mixed bag, with a couple of very solid windows. The water’s sitting at a normal 65° for the time of year, so nothing freaky going on there.
Right off the bat, Sunday the 26th, we’re in for a treat. The morning has a clean 7 ft S swell, a period of 11 seconds giving it some good grunt, and a cross-offshore wind from the WSW. The energy is moderate (938) and expect very good surf conditions. This is an advanced reef break, and with crowds often around, get out there early for the best of it.
Monday the 27th sees the swell drop to 4 ft S in the morning, still clean with a light wind. It’s surfable but nothing special. The afternoon turns poor.
Things go quiet from Tuesday the 28th through Wednesday the 29th with tiny, weak swell. A serious lull.
Then it starts to build back. Thursday the 30th morning kicks up a punchy 8 ft S swell, but with a marginal rating. The energy is strong (2211). The wind is clean, but this is getting big for a reef. Friday the 31st is similar, with 8 ft S swell again and a moderate energy reading (2578). It’s big and the afternoon gets a tricky cross-shore wind.
A standout for a cleaner session is Saturday the 1st of August. The morning delivers a nice 6 ft SSE swell with a cross-off wind, clean and with moderate energy (782). It’s very good surf for intermediate and upwards.
Another cracking window is Saturday the 8th of August. The morning goes glassy with a 5 ft S swell. Clean, glassy, good energy (274). Get on it. The afternoon, however, jumps to a solid 12 ft S, which is expert territory and gets messy.
But the true standout, the one to circle on the calendar, is Monday the 10th of August. The morning is an exceptional 15 ft SE swell with a period of 11 seconds. The combined energy is massive (4792) and it’s clean with a slight offshore breeze. This is only for experienced surfers, no question. It’s going to be an absolute beast at The Peak. Mark it down.
Rusty.
