The Lowdown
Grab your board—but maybe don't get too excited just yet. This 16-day window starts quiet and stays quiet for the most part. The only glimmer of anything worth paddling out for lands on Monday the 17th and Tuesday the 18th, and even then it's not exactly pumping. After that, it's a long stretch of small, weak, and messy conditions for the rest of the run, with a little flicker of hope right at the tail end.
The water is sitting at 76°F, which feels a touch warmer than average for this time of year—nice for a longer session without needing a thick suit.
92nd Street is your only option in the lineup, a breakwater setup that's best for beginners. The stand-out window is Monday the 17th. Monday morning you've got a light offshore breeze from the NNW at 6 mph, cleaning up a 3 ft swell from the SSE with a period of 6 seconds. Combined swell energy is weak at 69, but the glassy conditions in the afternoon—wind dropping to 3 mph from the SW—make for clean, though very ordinary, surf at 3 ft. That Monday afternoon glass-off is the best you'll see. Tuesday the 18th starts glassy again with a 2 ft SSE swell and a N wind at 3 mph, but by afternoon the onshore wind kills it.
After that, it's grim. From Wednesday the 19th all the way through Sunday the 1st of September, the swell dribbles between 1.0 ft and 3 ft with poor winds and low energy readings—most days under 50, and often in the teens or twenties. Short-period windswell dominates, with periods mostly under 8 seconds, and onshore or cross-shore winds chop things up. There's a blip on Thursday the 27th where combined energy hits 131 (moderate), but that comes with a risk of thunderstorms and a messy E wind, making it a write-off for proper surfing.
Honestly, if the surf's this tiny and the winds are this unreliable, the setup here might be more interesting for a kite than a paddle.

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.
