Alright, Rusty here again. Let's break it down in feet and miles per hour.
Plain truth is, the Finder says there's nothing good on the cards for North Street across the entire sixteen-day outlook. A real bummer of a stretch.
We're talking a long, dry gap with no surf worth mentioning. The waves are tiny, barely reaching 2-3ft for the most part, and the ocean has no grunt. The wave energy numbers are all low – mostly in the teens and thirties, hardly ever breaking triple digits. Swell direction is all over the place from the south and southeast, not really locking into the optimal southeast flow for this beach and jetty.
Winds are mostly messy as well. You'll see a lot of light to moderate cross-onshore breezes, kicking up chop and making the surface ugly. There are clean windows, like Tuesday the 7th with a clean look from the north-northeast on a knee-high wave, or Friday the 10th with a clean offshore cross-off. But even then, the waves are just too small – 2ft with a short period – it's not doing anything.
There's a spike on Saturday the 18th of July, with the swell hitting 5ft out of the south and the energy hitting a moderate 149. That's a bit of size, but the wind is a moderate cross-onshore at 15-16 mph, and the period is a weak 6 seconds. It's a choppy, wobbly, windy mess. That looks more like a kite session than a surf one.
For a break that's usually consistent, a run of flatness like this is just part of the deal. Forecasts can change, but right now, it's a waiting game. No standouts, no hope on the horizon.
Stay patient.
Rusty.

Information about the North Street Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for North Street provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at North Street can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our North 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 (North 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 North 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.
North Street is 2 km (1 miles) from Ocean City. If you plan a vacation in New Jersey, look for hotels and other accommodation in Ocean City. Ocean City has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
