The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's be straight with you about what's on the table for the next 16 days at 92nd Street.

Honestly, for the vast majority of this forecast period, the surf is a no-go. We're looking at a long stretch of tiny, weak, and messy conditions. The waves barely get their act together, and when they do, the wind often has other plans. The water temp is sitting at a pretty standard 74°, which is about average for this time of year, no real surprises there.

From Wednesday morning, August 19th, right through to the end of August, it's a flat spell. We're talking swell heights of 0.7ft to 3ft, with periods mostly under 9 seconds, and combined energy readings that are almost always under 100, often down in the 20s and 30s. That's just weak, wind-slop energy. The wind is a mixed bag of cross-onshore and even onshore, making for choppy, lumpy, and generally poor surf. The only slight relief is a few clean windows with light offshore winds, but the swell is so small (0.7ft to 2ft) that it's barely breaking, let alone rideable. It's a full-on drought.

We don't see a glimmer of hope until the very end of the first week of September. On Wednesday morning, September 2nd, the conditions finally tick over. The wind swings to a light offshore from the NNW, cleaning up the surface nicely. The swell is still tiny at 1ft, but it's a long-period groundswell from the SE at 11 seconds, with moderate energy (83). The text says "surfable waves but very ordinary conditions," which is the first positive nod we've had. This is the only real standout in the entire 16-day window, and it's a whisper. For a breakwater that's exposed to a SSE swell, the direction is workable, but the size is really for a longboard or a foamie. Don't expect much.

After that, it's back to the same old story. By Thursday, September 3rd, the wind is howling onshore again, and the quality drops right off.

So, to sum it up: the 16-day forecast is a blank canvas. There's a full 14-day gap of nothing. Your one and only chance to get wet is the morning of Wednesday, September 2nd, and even then, keep your expectations in the gutter. Bring a log and just enjoy being out.

Rusty.

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.
