The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Look, I’ll level with you – the next couple of weeks are looking pretty flat for the region around 92nd Street. It’s a breakwater setup, so it needs a bit of oomph to get going, and we’re just not seeing it. The water’s a touch warmer than normal for this time of year at 75°, so that’s one nice thing if you’re just having a paddle, but for surfing, it’s going to be a long wait.
We’ve got a gap of basically no decent surf from now through to the first week of September. The swell is tiny, mostly around 1ft to 2ft, with short periods and weak combined wave energy – it’s mostly in the 20s and 30s, barely cracking 100. The wind is a mess too, often onshore or cross-onshore, and the wave comments are just “poor surf conditions” day after day. There’s nothing worth paddling out for.
Starting around the morning of Friday, August 28th, we get a glimpse of something surfable, but it’s still very ordinary. The swell is only 2ft from the SE with a period of 8 seconds, and the combined energy is just 91 – weak. The wind is a light cross-off from the WNW, so the conditions are clean, but the waves are barely there. It’s the same story through the weekend: tiny swell, weak energy, and just “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions.” You’d be better off going for a swim.
The best on offer – and I’m using that term loosely – is the morning of Wednesday, September 2nd. We’ve got a 1ft SE swell with a period of 12 seconds, combined energy of 58, and a light cross-off wind from the NE. The period is decent, so it’ll have a bit of shape, but it’s tiny. Clean conditions, but you’ll be fighting for scraps. The water temp is still a touch warmer than normal, but it’s not going to save the session.
After that, it’s back to very poor conditions through to the 9th of September. The swell stays under 3ft, the energy is weak, and the wind is often onshore or creating chop. For a breakwater spot like this, we need a proper swell to wrap in, and it’s just not happening. If you’re a kite surfer, the afternoon on Thursday, August 27th, with 5ft and 22 mph onshore wind, might be more interesting, but for paddle surfing, it’s a write-off. See you in the water when it turns – 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.
92nd Street is 10 km (6 miles) from the city of Woodmere. If you plan a vacation in Long Island New York, look for hotels and other accommodation in Woodmere. Woodmere has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
