The Lowdown
Hey, it's Rusty here. Let's run through the surf for Point Dume Little Dume. Over the next 16 days, it's a pretty flat and marginal run. The water is 72°F, which is much warmer than usual for this time of year—so you'll be comfortable in a shorty or boardies.
The outlook starts on Wednesday, 12 August, with small, weak waves. The morning brings a 2 ft swell from the southwest, with a very long period of 17 seconds, but it's cross-onshore, creating small ripples and poor conditions. The swell energy is weak (196). Wednesday afternoon is a bit better at 2 ft from the south-southwest, but still poor. Thursday, 13 August, is similar—2 ft swell from the south-southwest, cross-onshore, and marginal. The afternoon is poor. Friday, 14 August, stays poor in the morning, but the afternoon sees a 2 ft swell from the south-southwest with moderate energy (583)—though it's onshore and marginal. Saturday, 15 August, has 3 ft to 3 ft swell from the south-southwest, but cross-onshore winds keep it choppy. From Sunday the 16th through Wednesday the 20th, the swell holds around 2 ft to 3 ft, but the winds are mostly cross-onshore, and conditions are poor or marginal. There's a gap of poor surf from Thursday the 21st to Tuesday the 26th, with the swell dropping to 1 ft and combined energy as low as 118—very weak. The standout arrives on Thursday, 27 August. The morning brings a 3 ft swell from the south-southeast, with moderate energy (599), and light offshore winds from the southwest. This is the cleanest window of the whole 16 days, with the swell direction matching the optimum S direction well. The afternoon stays similar, with a light cross-onshore breeze. The point is inconsistent and rarely breaks, so it's a gamble, but Thursday morning, 27 August, is your best shot for a few clean waves.
Rusty.
