The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the menu for the next couple of weeks.

Honestly, it’s a pretty quiet run for the most part. We’re looking at small, short-period windswell from the southeast for the vast majority of the 16-day window, and the winds are often not playing ball. The water is sitting at 73°, a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, which is nice for the dawn patrol but doesn’t do much for the waves.

The first real standout, and honestly the only one that gets me excited, shows up on the morning of Thursday, 10th September. We’ve got clean conditions with a light offshore breeze from the NNW, and the swell is showing a bit of life. The swell height is only 2 ft, but it’s a long-period groundswell from the southeast with a period of 12 seconds, which gives it some real push. The combined energy is moderate at 231. That longer period stuff tends to hold up better at a breakwater setup like 92nd Street, and with offshore wind, it’ll be clean and walled up. This is the best window in the whole outlook.

There’s a moment on the afternoon of Thursday, 3rd September that’s worth a mention too. The wind goes light and cross-off from the WNW, and the swell is 3 ft from the SSE with a 6-second period. The conditions are surfable, but it’s very ordinary. The combined energy is only 84, so it’s weak. It’s a session for a longboard if you’re really keen.

The rest of the period is a slog. There’s a big gap with no real recommendations. The first week is filled with onshore, cross-on, and choppy winds on tiny, weak swell. The closest we get to something decent in the early days is a brief clean window on the morning of Saturday, 30th August, but with 2 ft swell and weak energy, it’s barely a ripple. After that, we go through a stretch of poor conditions with heavy rain and fresh onshore winds at the start of September.

Towards the very end of the outlook, on the morning of Saturday, 12th September, we get a strong offshore breeze from the NNW at 25 km/h. The swell is small at 2 ft from the SE with a 10-second period, and the combined energy is 135. It’s described as having moderate offshore and clean conditions, but the wind is strong enough to make paddling tough. It’s a clean, small wave session for the experienced.

So, the short story is: hold out for the morning of Thursday, 10th September. That’s your best bet for some clean, long-period groundswell at 92nd Street. The rest is mostly a waiting game.

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.
