The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, let’s break down Newport – The Peak in feet and miles per hour.
We’ve got a real mixed forecast. Some clean windows, a lot of junk, and two that are absolute standouts if you time it right.
Sunday the 9th is a no-go. 3ft from the ENE, 9-second period, weak energy at 162. The NNW wind is cross-off, but it’s just poor.
Monday the 10th has size. Morning: 7ft from the ENE, 694 energy, but with 35 mph NW winds, it’s messy. Afternoon cleans up with 5ft from the NE and offshore NW wind – clean but still flagged as poor.
Tuesday the 11th is the first good one. Morning shows 5ft from the SW (350 energy) with gentle W winds – good. But Tuesday afternoon is the real deal: 5ft from the S, a 12-second period, 757 energy. That’s a groundswell with light offshore WNW wind. Very good, clean surf.
Wednesday the 12th is a drop-off. 3ft in the morning, clean but ordinary. Afternoon gets choppy and smaller.
Thursday the 13th is the big one. Morning: 8ft from the S, 9-second period, massive 1627 energy. That’s strong. The WSW wind is cross-off and it’s clean. Only for experts. Afternoon holds 8ft but the wind goes cross-on, chopping it up.
Friday the 14th is a nice recovery. Morning has 5ft from the S (342 energy) with light WSW winds – good, clean. Afternoon gets bigger at 6ft but the cross-on wind kills it.
Saturday the 15th and Sunday the 16th is a flat, choppy mess. Short period junk.
Monday the 17th is tiny. 2ft S swell with onshore wind. Don’t bother.
Tuesday the 18th is glassy in the morning, but the swell is only 2ft. Ordinary.
Saturday the 22nd is the next real chance. Morning: 6ft from the E, 10-second period, 630 energy, with cross-off N wind – clean. Get out early because the afternoon gets 30 mph NE winds.
And the standout? Sunday the 23rd. Morning has 7ft from the ENE, 9-second period, and a massive 1273 energy. The wind is 25 mph NW, offshore. The report says excellent for experienced surfers. This is the pick of the whole 16 days. The afternoon stays clean with 7ft and offshore wind, but the energy drops to 630. Morning is the session.
Monday the 24th fades with 4ft from the E and a long 11-second period, but the SSW wind brings a chop.
Rusty out.
