The Lowdown

Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you: the next couple of weeks are a mixed bag. We’ve got some swell windows, but the conditions are going to test your patience. The first real opportunity to get wet is this coming Saturday morning, but it’s not a classic. We’re looking at a 6ft WNW swell with a 12-second period, but the wind is going to be cross-onshore out of the north, which will put a few ripples on the face. (Pors-Ar-Ville) is a beach and reef set-up, so it can handle a bit of that, but it’s going to be a bit lumpy. The water temp here is 64°F, which is right about normal for this time of year, so no shock there.

Saturday afternoon, the swell drops slightly to 5ft and the wind turns more onshore, making things worse. I’d give it a miss. Sunday is smaller, with a drop to 3ft, and while a cross-offshore wind cleans it up, there just isn't enough power. It’s a dead loss.

Monday is where my ears perk up a bit. We’ve got a bigger pulse of 5ft to 6ft WNW swell with a long, powerful 13-second period. The wind is cross-offshore from the WNW, so it’ll be clean. The combined swell energy is moderate at 880, so there’s some push behind it. This is your best bet for a proper surf this week, but the scores aren't huge, so don’t expect perfection.

Tuesday morning looks good though. We have 5ft of WNW swell, and the wind swings southwest and goes offshore. That’s the magic word – offshore. It should groom those waves nicely. The period drops to 10 seconds, so it’s more of a wind swell, but with that clean face, it could be fun. The energy is moderate at 480. This might be the standout of the first week.

The rest of the week is just about hanging in there. Wednesday afternoon and Thursday have some clean-ish windows but the swell is smaller, around 4ft to 5ft. Friday gets blown out by strong cross-offshore and cross winds, and by the time the weekend rolls around, the swell is fading and the wind is messy. We’re looking at a run of poor conditions from the 13th onward as the energy drops out entirely.

Now, as we look further out, the second week is not promising. From the 14th through the 20th, the swell just fades away. There's a hint of a longer period swell on the 15th, but it's tiny – 1ft – and with no wind, it’s flat. The 18th has a little spike in period to 13 seconds, but the swell is only 2ft and onshore winds will kill it. This is a blank stretch, plain and simple. We’re looking at a solid week of nothing. Don't bother checking the buoys; there won't be anything to see.

If you have to get out this week, your window is Tuesday morning. It’s not going to be epic, but it’s the cleanest wave on offer. The Tuesday morning swell is 5ft, and the offshore wind will make it rideable. But you might want to look at the bigger picture: this stretch of small, weak surf is more typical for the area, and with the lack of consistent swell, we might be in for a spell of flatness. It won't last forever, but patience is the name of the game this time.

Take care out there.
