The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again, but this time in feet and miles. Lookin’ at the next 16 days for Ormond Beach Pier, and I gotta level with ya – it’s a rough stretch. There’s no real surf to speak of for the whole run. The first few days barely have a ripple, and even when there’s a tiny bump of energy, it’s not enough to get excited about. We’re talkin’ a long, dry gap here.
The whole forecast period is pretty much a bust. The biggest bump comes around Thursday the 6th in the morning, with a weak 3 ft swell from the ESE and a period of 7 seconds. The combined energy hits 102 (moderate), but it’s still labelled as poor surf conditions. The wind is a gentle cross-shore, so it’s not all blown out, but the wave size and period are just not there. After that, it’s right back to tiny, weak stuff.
If you’ve got a kite, the setup might be more interesting than a surfboard, especially with the moderate cross-onshore winds on some afternoons, but for a paddle surfer, there’s nothing to recommend. The water temperature is around 83°, which is pretty normal for this time of year, so no complaints there. But the waves? Man, they’re just not showing up.
Hang in there, but don’t hold your breath. This is a blank run for the books.
Rusty.
