Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a good look at what the North Sea has for us over the next couple of weeks. It’s a pretty grim picture for the most part, I won’t lie to you. We’ve got a long stretch of onshore winds battering the coast, and the forecast is looking mostly like a write-off.
Straight up, we’ve got a rough start. Tuesday the 7th kicks off with a near gale from the NW at 31 mph and a lumpy 6.6 ft swell. That’s all wind-slop, period of just 7 seconds, making for poor conditions. This onshore mess hangs around through Wednesday and Thursday, with the wind dropping a touch but the surf staying junky. By Friday the 10th, the swell just fades into nothing under 1.6 ft, so we’re looking at flat, blown-out conditions right through the weekend and into the start of the following week.
There’s a noticeable gap in any real surf. It stays small and poor from the 10th through to the 17th of July. We get little bumps of 1.3 ft to 3.6 ft, but they’re all accompanied by onshore winds and short, weak periods. The water temperature is hovering around 62.2°F, which is about average for the time of year here.
Now, here’s the one tiny glimmer. If you’re desperate for a paddle, keep an eye on Saturday the 18th of July at Nordseeklinik Westerland (Sylt) . We’ve got a bit of a pulse coming in – 4.9 ft from the NW with a period of 6 seconds (still short, mind you). The combined energy is moderate at 167. But the key thing here is that the Saturday morning session is looking at flat calm, glassy conditions with zero wind. That will clean up the wave face. The swell is a bit boily and short period, but for this spot, with clean conditions and a small crowd (just sometimes), it’s about the best we’ll see. The water temp anomaly is normal, so it won’t feel any different than usual for July. That Saturday morning is your only real shot at a surfable wave in this whole outlook.
After that, from Sunday the 19th onwards, it just sinks back into small, weak, and mostly onshore junk. There’s nothing else worth chasing. A long, flat spell for Sylt, but that’s just how it goes sometimes around here.
