The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's get into it.
Alright, listen up. I’ve got to be straight with you – the next 16 days are looking pretty grim for a proper paddle. We’ve got a few windows where you *might* get wet, but nothing to get excited about.
The only spot in the mix is 92nd Street, a breakwater that's a beginner-friendly zone. Don't expect much. The water is sitting at 74°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so at least you won't be freezing if you're just sitting out there.
The whole forecast is a long stretch of poor conditions. From now through to the end of August and into the first week of September, it's a write-off. We’re looking at tiny, weak swell with energy levels barely cracking 100 (28) and onshore winds making a mess of things. You’ll see a couple of mornings on the 28th and 29th of August with clean conditions and light offshore winds, but the swell is a pathetic 2 to 3 ft. It's surfable if you're desperate, but it's very ordinary.
The second week is more of the same. There's a blip on the 5th of September with a bit more size – 3 to 3 ft from the ESE – and clean offshore winds from the NNW, but it's still poor quality. The energy is just moderate (101 to 121), and it's just not coming together.
Then, on the 10th of September, we finally see something. A jump in swell to 5 ft from the East, with clean cross-offshore winds. The energy readings are moderate to strong (217 to 248), but it's still a short period swell (6-7 seconds), which is going to be a bit weak and crumbly. The forecast even calls it "marginal". It’s the best we’ve got, but it’s still not a standout.
To be honest, if you’re looking for a proper paddle, this stretch is a bust. The kite surfers might have some fun with the wind on the 4th of September when the southerly pumps up to 25 mph with a 3 ft swell, but for a surfer? Forget it. The blank run is brutal, but it happens in this area. Forecasts can change, so keep an eye on it, but I wouldn't be booking any time off work.
Rusty.
