The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's be straight with you: the next couple of weeks are looking pretty flat for the Ormond Beach area. There’s simply no decent swell on the cards, with most days offering knee-high dribble at best. The water temp is sitting at 83°, which is about average for this time of year. We'll run through the whole period, but don't expect any fireworks.
Right now, Wednesday afternoon sees a weak 3ft ESE windswell bumping in with a short period of 4 seconds. With a 16 mph cross-shore wind, it's a choppy mess and the combined energy is a paltry 27. Honestly, not worth the paddle.
Through Thursday the 23rd and Friday the 24th, the swell drops further. We're looking at 2ft to 3ft of short-period E to ESE windswell. A light onshore breeze on Friday morning offers the best chance for something to push onto the bank, but it's still tiny. The combined energy stays weak, between 35 and 83.
The weekend brings cleaner conditions but even less size. Saturday the 25th has early cross-off winds, cleaning up that 2ft E swell, but the energy is a low 44. Sunday the 26th is similar with a light cross-off, offering a clean 2ft wave for the longboard. On Monday the 27th and Tuesday the 28th, we get offshore winds in the mornings, cleaning up tiny 1ft to 1ft waves. It’s flat, but if you had to, you could find a knee-high glassy wave.
The first week of August shows a tiny bump in size around the 2nd. Sunday the 2nd has a 3ft SE swell pushing the combined energy up to 148 – the highest we'll see for a while. Still, the period is a short 8 seconds and the wind is cross-on, so it’ll be a bit lumpy. Monday the 3rd morning sees a glassy 2ft SE swell with weak energy, but the period is a terrible 5 seconds, making it a bouncy mess.
From the 4th through the 6th of August, it's back to tiny offshore wind conditions with 0.6ft to 2ft waves. The final morning on Thursday the 6th is glassy, but with only a 1ft swell, it’s barely a ripple.
The one real standout, if you can call it that, is just a cleaner session with a bit more push. Ormond Beach Pier on Sunday morning, August 2nd, with that 3ft SE swell. It’s not big, but the glassy conditions and a combined energy of 148 make it the most appealing window for a small-wave log. There’s a chance of crowds here, so get there early for a chance at a few clean, waist-high runners.
Rusty.
