The Lowdown
Alright, let's get into it. I'm gonna be straight with you, the outlook for 92nd Street is a tough one to call. It sits here as a breakwater setup, wide open to whatever the ocean throws at it, but the problem is, what's being thrown at it just isn't working.
Looking at the whole 16-day run, the pattern is pretty grim. There's hardly any energy coming in, and the windows of clean conditions are few and far between. We are looking at a long, barren stretch here. Right from the start on Sunday the 30th, we've got a tiny 1.3ft SE swell with a short, weak period of 8 seconds. The wind is a messy cross-shore, and the combined energy is a paltry 26, which is just dead. That's not surf, that's a ripple. The conditions are described as poor, and honestly, they are.
Monday the 31st of August sees a glimmer of hope with a bit of glassy calm in the morning, but the swell is even smaller at 1.0ft. It's clean as a whistle, but with next to no wave to push, it's more of a paddle than a surf. The water temp is about average for this time of year, nothing to write home about.
The rest of the first week and into the second is a repeat performance. We get a little bump of 1.6ft on the 2nd of September, with a longer period of 11 seconds, which is a bit of a tease. The energy jumps to 63. But the wind turns onshore and it gets choppy. A couple of mornings, like the 4th and 5th of September, offer light offshore or cross-off winds, giving us a clean face, but the swell is just pathetic—1.0ft to 1.3ft. It's a flat spell dressed up as a possibility.
Honestly, there are no standouts. Nothing even close to a score. The waves never break the 3.3ft mark until the very end of the forecast, and even then, it's a jumbled, short-period affair. For a spot that needs a decent push to get going, this is a write-off. If you're a beginner looking for a tiny, gentle push on a clean day, maybe the glassy morning of the 31st of August could work, but I wouldn't call it a recommendation.
For anyone else, you're better off leaving the board at home. The conditions are so consistently poor that this stretch is more interesting for a beach walk than a paddle out. The energy levels barely hit three digits, and when they do, the wind ruins it. It’s a tough watch.
Stay patient.
