The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, let’s talk about what’s happening at 92nd Street.
Look, if you’re looking to paddle out in the next couple of weeks, you’re going to have to be patient. The next week and a half is looking pretty grim, with hardly any proper surf on offer. The swell is tiny, the energy is weak, and conditions are mostly messy. There’s a real gap in quality here, with days and days of poor surf stretching from now right through to the end of August.
The best of a bad bunch comes right at the very end of the outlook. On Monday the 31st of August, the morning is showing a little bit of hope. The swell is still small, only 1ft from the SE, but the period is a very long 19 seconds. That’s proper groundswell energy, even if it’s tiny. What makes it interesting is the wind – glassy, dead calm, with slight air movement. The wave energy is weak (75), but that combination of glassy conditions and long-period swell at a breakwater might just offer a few clean, lined-up waves. It’s not going to be a classic, but for anyone itching for a surf, it’s the best on offer by a long shot. Don’t expect much consistency though.
Tuesday the 1st of September morning is similar – a tiny 1ft SE swell, again with a very long 15 second period and glassy conditions. The energy is still weak (82). It’s surfable, but you’ll be working for those small, clean waves.
Later in the first week of September, Wednesday the 2nd of September afternoon has a bit more energy (131) with a 2ft SE swell and a period of 11 seconds. The wind goes glassy from the NW, which is offshore and perfect. It’s still not pumping, but it’s clean and surfable.
After that, into the second week, the swell stays small, mostly under 3ft, and the wind tends to mess things up. There’s nothing that stands out as a real standout. The water temperature is about average for the time of year.
So to sum it up: hold tight, keep an eye on that Monday the 31st of August morning glass-off. That’s your best chance for a sneaky, clean session on tiny, long-period waves. It’s not big, but it might just be clean.

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.
