The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the table for 92nd Street over the next couple of weeks. Honestly, it's a pretty quiet stretch. We're not talking about any pumping groundswells or epic sessions, so keep your expectations in check.
The first real chance of a surf comes on Monday afternoon, August 17th. We've got a small, clean little wave. Swell is coming out of the SSE at about 3 ft, with a combined energy of just 59. The water's a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, sitting at 75 °F. The wind is a light cross-off from the NNE, so the surface will be clean. It's surfable, but very ordinary. A beginner could have a mess-around on a foamie, but there's nothing to get excited about.
After that, things go dead for a solid week. From Tuesday the 18th all the way through to Sunday the 23rd, the guidance is full of poor surf conditions. Tiny swell, onshore winds, and choppy water. Not worth paddling out for.
We get a tiny blip on Monday the 24th. Again, it's a small, clean morning with a 2 ft S swell, 54 combined energy, and a light cross-off NW wind. It's surfable but still very ordinary.
The following week doesn't offer much either. There's a bit more energy showing up around Thursday the 27th, with combined energy climbing to 123 and 126, but it's from the SSE and SE with cross-onshore winds, making for lumpy, choppy conditions. Not good.
We finally see a return to cleaner conditions on Friday morning, August 28th. A small 2 ft SE swell, period of 10 seconds, with a gentle offshore wind from the north. The combined energy is 94, and it's described as surfable but very ordinary. This is probably the pick of the very average bunch, but it's still nothing special.
The rest of the run into early September is more of the same: tiny, weak swell and cross-off winds. Nothing that's going to get your heart racing.
So, the bottom line: this is a lean period for 92nd Street. No standouts. No big swell. If you're desperate for a paddle, the cleanest, most surfable windows are Monday afternoon August 17th, Monday morning August 24th, and Friday morning August 28th. But keep the big board at home.
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.
