The Lowdown
Alright, let’s look at this from a different angle.
The news for the next week or so is not good. We’re in a flat spell with small, weak waves and all sorts of wind. For the first few days, the swell is tiny, mostly under 3 feet, and the wind is messy. The combined wave energy is weak, so there’s no real power in the water. It’s a write-off for a paddle.
The only real standout is a brief window around Tuesday, August 4th. The morning is glassy, which is a big plus. The swell is a little better at 5 feet from the NW, but the period is a short 9 seconds, so it’s not long-period energy. The water temp is 69°F, which is about normal for the time of year. It’s surfable, but not exciting.
The real action is forecast for the weekend of August 7th and 8th. On Friday afternoon, the 7th, a big swell hits: 8 feet from the NW, with a 10-second period, and the combined energy is massive at 1488. The wind is cross-on, so it’ll be a bit choppy, but this is powerful surf. Saturday, the 8th, sees a 8-foot swell from the NNW, with an 11-second period, and another huge energy reading of 1465. The wind is cross-shore, so it’s not clean. This is strictly for experts only – the swell is over 8 feet, so beginners should not even think about it. This is a reef or point break situation.
So, for the next week, don’t bother. The 4th gives you a tiny window, but the real goal is the 7th and 8th. That’s the one to circle.
