The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming up for Newport – The Peak.

Right off the bat, we’ve got a decent run of surf kicking off the morning of Thursday, July 30th. The swell is a 7ft south swell with a 9-second period, and the combined energy is moderate (687). The water temp is sitting at 65°F which is about average for this time of year. The wind is a cross-off SW breeze at 9 mph, so the morning session is looking clean and well-shaped. This is a reef break, so it’s for advanced surfers only, with crowds likely. Thursday afternoon fades out as the wind swings onshore, so get it while it’s good.

Friday morning, July 31, is the standout. The swell is a solid 7ft from the south, period has stretched to 10 seconds, and the combined energy jumps to 1449 (strong). That’s a lot of juice. The wind stays cross-off from the SW at 9 mph, keeping it clean. This is expert territory – over 8ft is too big for beginners, but at 7ft this is a proper challenge for the experienced. The afternoon again goes cross-on, so don’t sleep in.

Saturday morning, August 1, is a step down with a 5ft SSE swell, 9 seconds, and moderate energy (399). The wind is light cross-off WSW at 6 mph, keeping it clean. It’s a good option, but not the best of the run. Sunday morning, August 2, brings a 6ft SSE swell with a 12-second period (long period groundswell – nice for this reef), and the energy is 902 (moderate to strong). The wind is a clean cross-off from the north at 6 mph. This is another very good session.

From Monday, August 3, the swell drops off. The morning is a small 3ft SE swell, 11-second period, and the energy is weak (239). It’s clean, but it’s a pale shadow of the weekend. The surf continues to fade through Tuesday and Wednesday, with very small, weak waves. There’s a notable gap of weak, poor conditions from late Monday all the way through to the end of the week.

The next real highlight shows up on Saturday morning, August 8. A 5ft south swell, 8-second period, pushes the energy back to 580 (moderate). The wind is a light cross-off WSW at 6 mph, making for clean conditions. It’s a solid, fun morning, but not the size of the earlier swell.

The final standout is a long-range promise on Friday morning, August 14. A 6ft south swell, 8-second period, with 628 (moderate) energy. The wind is light cross-off from the WSW at 6 mph, keeping it clean. This is a promising session, but it’s over two weeks away, so keep an eye on the forecast.

Overall, the best on offer is Friday morning, July 31, with the biggest, most powerful swell and clean conditions. The runner-up is Sunday morning, August 2, for the long-period groundswell. The rest of the run is a mixed bag of small waves and onshore slop, so pick your windows carefully.

Rusty.
