The Lowdown
Alright, let’s get real about 92nd Street. Honestly, mate, it’s a tough stretch ahead. The break is a breakwater setup, so it’s not the most forgiving when the swell is small and the wind is messy. The water is sitting at 73°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so you won’t be needing the thickest wetsuit.
The first real chance to get wet is Friday morning, August 28. We’ve got a small 3ft swell rolling in from the southeast, with a short period of 8 seconds, so the energy is weak (112). The wind is a light westerly at 6 mph, blowing cross-offshore, which keeps the surface clean. It’s surfable, but it’s very ordinary – nothing to get excited about. After that, it’s a long, dry stretch. Saturday through the whole first week of September is a write-off: tiny waves, poor conditions, onshore winds, and thunderstorms threatening. The energy drops right off – some days barely registering (17 to 28). Honestly, it’s a proper flat spell.
There’s a glimmer in the second week. On Sunday, September 6, we get a glassy morning with a tiny 0.7ft swell from the east-southeast, period 10 seconds, but it is glassy. The next day, Monday, September 7, is the best of the lot: a 2ft swell from the east-southeast, period 11 seconds, and the wind is glassy again in the morning. The energy is still weak (85) but it’s the cleanest we’ll see. After that, it’s back to the same old story: small, choppy, and messy. The last real chance is Friday, September 11, when a SSE swell bumps up to 3-3ft with moderate energy (101-172), but the wind is cross-onshore and choppy – not great for paddle surfing, but it might be more interesting for the kite crew.
To be honest, the standout here is Monday, September 7 morning. It’s the cleanest, glassiest window, but the swell is tiny. For a beginner-friendly breakwater, that’s as good as it gets in this forecast. The rest of the 16 days is mostly a blank – you’re waiting a long time between waves.
