The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty again, giving you the numbers your granddad uses. Let’s look at the same stretch.
We kick off today, Sunday the 23rd of August, and it’s flat as a pancake. From here through Thursday the 27th, it's just tiny, junk waves. The swell is a measly 0.3 ft, with a short period of 13-14 seconds out of the SW. Forget about it.
Thursday afternoon the 27th, the swell climbs to 3 ft from the SSW, but the period is a short 8 seconds and the wind is cross-onshore. Not good.
Friday the 28th is the same story: 3 ft SSW, short period, choppy. Saturday the 29th throws up a 6 ft swell from the WSW in the morning, but with a terrible 6-second period and strong cross-onshore winds tearing it apart. By the afternoon, the swell hits 7 ft from the SW, but it's still short-period and messy. The energy readings go from 195 (moderate) to 320 (strong), but the quality is poor. This carries on through the end of the first week and into September, with strong winds ruining any chance of a good wave.
There's a quiet patch starting Sunday the 31st, with a return to tiny swell and poor conditions. Wednesday the 2nd of September offers a 3 ft swell from the WSW, but the period is a shocking 4 seconds. It's a poor wave.
The biggest surge of energy is Thursday the 3rd of September, with a 7 ft swell from the SW at 7 seconds. The energy is a very strong 384, but the cross-onshore wind will make it a messy, choppy wall. It hits 8 ft on Sunday the 6th of September, with 7 seconds and an energy reading of 546. Very strong, but the period is too short and the wind is cross-onshore. That size is for experts only, and the quality doesn't look good. Probably a kiter's session.
Even when the wind goes offshore, the swell is either too small or the period is too short to shape up.
So from where I’m standing, Rusty, there isn't a single day in the next 16 days that I'd point a surfer toward. It’s a long, dull run of either flat surf or blown-out slop. Not your week. Forecasts can flip, but today, that's the hard truth.
Rusty, signing off.

Information about the Rhosneigr Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Rhosneigr provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Rhosneigr can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Rhosneigr surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Rhosneigr) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Rhosneigr may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
