The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for Pors Ar Ville.
Truth be told, the next two weeks are looking pretty flat and quiet. We’ve got a long stretch ahead with hardly any swell to speak of, and the wind’s not doing us any favours either. Right from the start, Friday the 31st of July, we’re looking at a weak 2ft swell from the WNW. The combined energy is only 60, which is very weak, and with a moderate cross-onshore breeze, it’s going to be choppy and messy. Honestly, not worth a paddle.
That poor run continues right through the first week and into the second. We see a few days where the wind swings a bit, like Tuesday the 4th of August, when we get a clean offshore breeze from the SW, but the swell is just a tiny 2ft with energy at 35. It's clean but there's simply no power to ride. The water temp is sitting at 65°F, which is about average for the time of year.
Things stay in the doldrums. We get a few clean windows, like on the 10th of August with a glassy morning and a 2ft swell from the NW, but the period is only 4 seconds and the energy is a paltry 23. It’s just not doing anything. The best of a bad bunch might be Tuesday the 11th of August, where we see a glassy morning with a 2ft swell from the W and a 10-second period. The combined energy is 50, still weak, but the glassy conditions would at least make it look pretty. But there’s no significant swell to back it up.
There are no standouts here. No recommendation to go. The forecast for the whole 16-day window is consistently poor, so don’t expect any magic to appear. It’s a blank run, and that’s just how it goes here sometimes. The forecast can always change, but for now, leave your board in the car.
Rusty.
