The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – the next 16 days at 92nd Street are looking pretty grim. We’ve got a long stretch of barely anything worth paddling out for.
The whole outlook starts with tiny, weak swell. From Monday the 31st of August right through to Sunday the 6th of September, we’re looking at waves mostly between a pathetic 0.7 ft and 2 ft. The energy is weak at best, with the combined swell energy only hitting a maximum of 129 on the Wednesday (moderate energy at best, but it’s all short-period, messy windswell). Winds are a real problem here too, with a lot of cross-onshore or onshore breezes and plenty of rain and storms forecast. The water temperature is pretty average for this time of year. Honestly, for most of that first week, you’re better off staying home. There’s a tiny window on Thursday the 3rd and Friday the 4th of September where we get clean, offshore winds from the WNW and NW, but with the swell only 2 ft to 3 ft and a period of 6 to 8 seconds, it’s barely a knee-high dribble. Crowds could be a factor here even when it’s small, so don’t expect to have it to yourself.
We then hit a proper gap with no real recommendations through to the middle of the month. The morning of Monday the 7th of September is the closest we get to something interesting. We’ve got a 2 ft swell from the ESE with a period of 12 seconds – that’s a bit of groundswell energy coming through. Combined energy hits 107, which is moderate, and the wind is a light offshore from the NE. It’d be clean, but at that size, it’s still a very small wave. It’s a long-period swell for a beach break setup like this, so it might be a bit straight and fat. That’s the only real standout across the whole 16 days, and it’s still tiny.
After that, it’s back to mostly poor, choppy conditions with weak swell. Tuesday the 8th of September sees a bump to 4 ft, but it’s from the SSW with a rubbish 6-second period and howling onshore winds – that’s just a messy, blown-out closeout. The combined energy is 163, but with those winds and short period, it’s not surfable. The second week trails off into nothing, with 1.0 ft to 2 ft waves and mostly unfavourable winds.
To summarise: if you’re desperate for a clean but tiny wave, the morning of Monday the 7th is your only real shout. For everyone else, it’s a long stretch of flat to poor conditions. Honestly, with that kind of onshore wind and small, weak swell, this setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing for the majority of the period.
Rusty.

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.
