The Lowdown
Alright, surfers, Rusty here. Let's talk about what we've got cooking over the next couple of weeks at 92nd Street. It's a bit of a grim stretch, if I'm being honest.
First up, let's talk about the water. When you paddle out at 92nd Street, you're looking at water temps around 77°F, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year. Nice for hanging in the lineup, if there were any waves to hang for.
We’re staring at a long, flat spell to start. The first bit of any real energy doesn’t show up until Monday morning, the 17th of August. Even then, we're talking about weak, short-period swell bumping in at about 3ft from the SSE. The combined energy is pretty weak, just 137. It's surfable, but very ordinary. A little cross-offshore wind from the NW might clean it up a touch, but it's a far cry from good. That little blip of energy fades fast, dropping back to weak and small for the rest of that week.
There’s a big gap in the action after that. For days on end, it's just tiny slop and onshore wind. You’d be fighting for a knee-high dribble. Not worth the paddle.
The only real standout, and I say that with a heavy heart, comes right at the tail end of the window. On Thursday morning, the 27th of August, we get a pulse of 3ft from the SSE. The period is a weak 7 seconds, but the wind goes light offshore from the NNW, cleaning it right up. The combined energy is still low at 93. Then, Thursday afternoon gets glassy with a light westerly. The swell is tiny, but for a clean, small-wave longboard session, you could do worse.
Beyond that, Friday the 28th sees a jump in size, with waves hitting 5ft from the E, but the wind is straight onshore from the SSE, turning it into a closeout mess. The combined energy hits 294, so there’s some power, but the wind ruins it. Saturday the 29th is similar, with 4ft from the ESE and cross-onshore wind—rough conditions.
Honestly, for this whole period, it's a struggle. The consistency is awful. If you absolutely have to get wet, that Thursday the 27th is your best and only real bet for something clean, even if it’s small.
Rusty.

Information about the 92nd Street Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for 92nd Street provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at 92nd Street can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our 92nd Street surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (92nd Street) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for 92nd Street may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
