The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with each other – the next couple of weeks are shaping up to be a proper bust for surf. We’re looking at a long gap of small, weak, and choppy conditions before anything even starts to look interesting.
Right now, there’s just no energy in the water. We’ve got a run starting Wednesday the 29th of July that’s all small, onshore slop. The swell is tiny, barely 3 ft from the WNW, with a weak period around 8 seconds and junk wind. The combined wave energy is a measly 104 (kWh) – that's weak. The water is sitting at about 65°F which is pretty average for this time of year, but that’s the only thing that’s normal. Wednesday afternoon and Thursday the 30th look even worse, with a 9-16 mph breeze from the W-NW putting a nasty chop on it. Don't even think about it.
This flat spell just drags on. Friday the 31st, into the weekend, into next week... it's all grim. Swell drops to 2 ft or less, periods are all over the place from 6 to 10 seconds, but it's coming from the W, NW, or SW – nothing with any punch. The energy readings drop into the 20s and 30s, which is barely a ripple. You’ll get some clean windows on Sunday morning the 2nd of August with a light NNE breeze, or Thursday the 6th and Friday the 7th with offshore cross-off winds from the NE, but there’s nothing underneath it. You’d be paddling for flat water.
It’s not until Monday the 10th of August that we see a glimmer. The morning on the 10th has an offshore breeze from the East at just 3-6 mph, and the swell bumps up a little to 3 ft from the NNW, but the period is a short 5 seconds. Still, the wind is clean. The real standout is Tuesday the 11th of August. The morning has a proper offshore from the East, glassy conditions, and the swell picks up to 4 ft from the NW with a period of 6 seconds. For the first time, the combined energy crosses into three digits at 127 (kWh), which is moderate energy. That’s the morning to watch at Pointe du Toulinguet. The swell direction is from the NW, which is cross-on to the W optimum, but the clean offshore wind and the first real pulse of size could make for some fun, rideable waves. The afternoon on Tuesday will get chopped up by a 12 mph NW breeze, so the window is the morning. It’s not big, but it’s the best we’ve got in this forecast. Wednesday the 12th has a similar 3 ft swell but the morning wind is already on it from the NW, so it won't be as clean.
After that, it fades back into a tiny, wind-affected mess through the end of the second week. The guidance only lists this one break, so that’s the whole story. The outlook is grim, but forecasts change.
Rusty.
