The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's take a look at what's on the table for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, this is a tough one. We've got a solid 16-day window ahead, but the first week is a real struggle. The wave energy is just too weak and the conditions are messy. We're looking at a long, flat spell before anything worthwhile shows up. The water temp is sitting at 69°, which is about average for the time of year, so at least the wait won't be too chilly.
The first real glimmer of hope comes on Wednesday, August 5th. Through the morning we'll see some glassy conditions with a tiny 2 ft swell from the NW, but it's short-period stuff at 8 seconds. The combined energy is a weak 131, so don't expect much push. Still, it's surfable, just very ordinary.
The best bet in this whole outlook is actually the morning of Monday, August 17th. There's a bit of a pulse expected. The morning at Playa de Tranqueru looks promising with a 4 ft swell from the NW at 9 seconds, and the wind is glassy. The combined energy jumps up to 223, which is a moderate bump. The afternoon sees the swell size increase to 5 ft and the period stretches to 10 seconds, pushing the energy to 455, but the wind swings onshore, killing the quality. So the call is clear: get on it early Monday, August 17th for the best chance of something clean.
Outside of that, there are a few mornings with glassy conditions, like August 16th, but the swell is small and the energy is weak. It's a waiting game, and this window is a tough one for consistent waves.
Rusty.
