The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s see what’s cooking at 92nd Street over the next couple of weeks.
I’ll be honest, this stretch is looking pretty quiet. The swell is tiny and the wind’s all over the place. For the first week, from Tuesday the 25th of August right through the end of the month, it’s all poor surf. Waves are just 1ft to 2ft, and the combined energy is weak – mostly between 19 and 72 in the brackets. The wind is either cross-off, cross-on, or straight onshore, so no good. There’s a little bump on Thursday the 27th afternoon – 4ft from the SSE – but the period is a tiny 5 seconds and the wind is onshore at 19 mph. That’s just messy. For beginners, anything over 5ft starts getting hairy, but this is just junk. Honestly, looks more like a kite surfing day than a paddle session.
Water temp is about 75°, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year – a nice little anomaly of 3°. Makes the wait a bit nicer, but it’s still a wait.
Into the second week, a few glimmers show up. Tuesday the 1st of September, we get a glassy morning with a 1ft SSE swell and a very long period of 16 seconds. Combined energy is still weak at 57, but that glassy wind means the water will be mirror-flat. That’s your best shot for a little slide, but it’s still very ordinary.
Wednesday the 2nd and Thursday the 3rd keep it small – 1ft to 2ft SSE swell, clean cross-off winds in the mornings, but low energy (56-68). Surfable, but nothing to write home about.
Then Saturday the 5th of September shows some life. Swell hits 3ft from the SE with an 11-second period, and the combined energy jumps to 144 in the brackets – that’s a moderate push. Winds are cross-off from the west, so it’ll be clean. That morning is your real standout of the whole forecast. Not big, but the best we’ve got, and with that longer period, the waves should have a bit of shape. It’s a breakwater, so those long-period swells can work nicely.
Sunday the 6th slips back into cross-on wind and messy conditions, but Monday the 7th of September offers another decent look: 3ft from the SSE, 8-second period, with a gentle offshore wind from the NNW. Energy reads 125, so moderate. That morning will be clean and surfable.
After that, it fades fast into tiny, weak swell with strong winds. The last few days are a write-off.
So, for the standout: if you’ve got to pick a session, make it the morning of Saturday the 5th of September. That 3ft SE swell, clean cross-off wind, and moderate energy is as good as it gets. The Monday the 7th morning is a solid backup. Keep expectations low, and you might just have a laugh.
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.
