The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let's talk about 92nd Street for the next couple of weeks. Truth be told, there's not much to get excited about. The swell is small and the wind is mostly a problem, so we'll be sitting on our hands for a while.

For the first week and a half, from Wednesday the 19th right through to Wednesday the 26th, it's dead. Swell heights are stuck between 0.3 ft and 2 ft, with short-period windswell. The energy numbers are all below 100, which is weak. The winds shift from onshore to cross-shore, and it's often choppy. Even a glassy moment on Thursday the 20th morning only brings 1 ft of swell – not enough to push a surfboard. It's a long stretch with nothing.

The first real sign of life shows up on Thursday the 27th afternoon. The combined swell energy hits 292 (moderate wave energy) and the swell period extends to 12 seconds – that's a proper groundswell. The wave height is still only 2 ft from the SE, but the wind is cross-offshore from the NE, keeping the surface clean. It's only rated a 1/10, so it's marginal, but it's the best we've seen. The water temp is about average for the time of year.

If you're patient and have a longboard, Thursday afternoon the 27th is your best shot for a few clean, albeit small, waves. The swell direction is SSE, which is right in the wheelhouse for this break.

Friday the 28th morning bumps up to 3 ft from the SSE with a 10-second period and an energy of 270. The wind stays cross-offshore from the NE, so it's clean. That's the biggest swell of the whole forecast, but it's still rated as poor surf. Might offer a few better ones for the experienced crew.

After that, it's back to tiny surf through the 29th and beyond. There's a glassy window on Tuesday the 1st of September afternoon and Wednesday the 2nd morning, but the swell is a joke – 0.7 ft to 3 ft with weak energy. You could paddle out, but you won't be catching much.

Bottom line: a lean couple of weeks. The best you'll get is Thursday the 27th afternoon and maybe Friday the 28th morning if you're lucky. Otherwise, it's a good time to wax up and wait.

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.
