The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s cooking at 92nd Street. I gotta be straight with you – this one’s a tough slog. There just isn’t any good surf on offer in this whole 16-day window. The swell energy is weak, the conditions are generally poor, and I’m looking at a long stretch of days where you’d be better off doing something else.
The first day with any faint pulse is Monday the 24th of August, but at a tiny 2ft from the SSE with a short, weak period of 6 seconds and a combined energy of just 46, it’s not worth the paddle out. That trend continues for days on end – clean skies and light cross-offshore winds on Tuesday the 25th sound nice, but paired with 1ft of weak junk, there’s just no push. We get a little bump on Friday the 28th of August with 3ft from the south, but the period is a dismal 7 seconds and the energy is still weak at 199 (moderate). The onshore wind spoils it anyway.
The only time the energy climbs into a moderate range is from Sunday the 30th of August afternoon through Wednesday the 2nd of September, with the swell height hitting 5ft at best. Even then, the period is short and the conditions are described as "poor" or just "marginal." The water temp is running 73°F which is about average for the time of year here, so no surprises there.
This is a basic beach break setup with a 2/5 rating, and honestly, this kind of blank run is pretty normal for the area when the swell directions aren't cooperating. If it wasn’t for the clean cross-offshore winds we see on a few mornings with the better energy later on (Wednesday 2nd September morning), you might think about it, but the winds are fresh and strong those days. For the surfer, this is a total washout. For a kite surfer? The stronger winds and onshore conditions at times might look a little more interesting than paddling.
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.
