The Lowdown

G'day, Rusty here. Well, I've got to be straight with you – this 16-day stretch for 92nd Street is a quiet one. The water's sitting at a touch warmer than normal, about 76°F, which is a degree or two above what we'd usually see this time of year. But don't let that fool you into thinking the surf is firing.

The pattern is pretty flat, with a consistent run of poor surf conditions right through. There's a real gap from the start, with nothing worth paddling out for. We see a few modest pulses, but they're all let down by the wind or the swell direction. The swell energy is weak for the most part, with values like 26 (combined energy of all swells directed here), 24, and 36 right through the first week – nothing to get excited about. The biggest push comes on Friday, the 4th of September, when the swell bumps up to 5ft from the east, with a combined energy of 265 (strong wave energy). But the wind is cross-onshore from the ESE, gusting at 12 mph, so it's going to be choppy and messy. That's really only for the experts, and even then, the conditions are poor.

The only real standout, if you can call it that, is Wednesday afternoon, the 2nd of September. The swell is small at 1ft from the SSE, with a period of 10 seconds. The wind is glassy from the SW, so it'll be clean. The combined energy is only 45 (weak wave energy), but we get a "surfable waves but very ordinary conditions" rating – a rare glimmer. It's a beginner-friendly size, though, so if you're desperate for a splash, that's your window. Given the break is a breakwater that's exposed, the optimum swell direction is SSE, so that's a good match. Crowds are sometimes a problem, so you might have company.

But honestly, for the rest of the run, it's a blank. The swells are small, the wind is often onshore or cross-shore, and the quality is consistently poor. For a spot that's fairly consistent, this is a dry spell. Forecasts can change, so don't give up hope, but as it stands, leave the board at home.

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.
