Alright folks, Rusty here.
Let me be straight with you – the next sixteen days at Pors Ar Ville (France) are looking pretty grim. We’ve got a long dry spell on our hands. Honestly, there isn’t a single day in this entire forecast period that I’d point to and say “get in the water.” It’s a total blank for any kind of decent surf.
We start off the first week of July with some tiny swell pushing in from the WNW, around 2 ft to 3 ft. The problem is the wind is a nightmare. From Tuesday the 7th right through to Sunday the 13th, it’s cross-shore, cross-on, or mostly just straight onshore at 9 mph to 22 mph. The sea state is described as choppy or lumpy, and the combined swell energy (55 to 165) is moderate but totally wasted by the junk wind. It’s just a mess out there. You’d be fighting an onshore breeze for nothing.
The second week is even worse. From Monday the 14th through to Wednesday the 22nd, the swell drops into a puddle – we’re talking 0.3 ft to 2 ft. The combined energy plummets to weak levels, under 20, bottoming out at just 2. The only flicker of hope is around Saturday the 19th and Sunday the 20th, when we get some clean conditions with offshore or cross-offshore winds, and a touch more period. On Sunday the 19th afternoon, there’s a small 2 ft W swell with a 12-second period and moderate offshore wind, and the energy creeps up to 100. Even then, the wave comment says “poor surf conditions.”
That’s as good as it gets, and it’s not saying much. For a beach and reef setup like this, the extended period of small, weak swell combined with strong onshore winds makes the setup look more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. There’s just no energy or quality to work with. Forecasts can change, but right now, we’re looking at a long wait.
Rusty.
