Rhosneigr Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s break down what’s happening for the next couple of weeks.

Honestly, it’s a rough start. From now through the morning of the 19th, it’s mostly flat or blown out. Water temp is about 64°, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year, but that’s about the only bright spot.

From Wednesday the 12th through Tuesday the 19th morning, swell is tiny – mostly under 2ft – and the wind is often cross-on or onshore, making for choppy, messy conditions. The combined energy is mostly in the single digits or low teens – really weak.

On Wednesday the 19th, we finally see some size. The morning brings 6ft from the WNW with a period of 6 seconds, and the combined energy jumps to 183 – moderate. Wind is onshore though, so it’s lumpy. The afternoon is a bit cleaner with a light cross-on breeze, but still not great.

Thursday the 20th is the real standout. That morning, we get a solid offshore wind from the NE at 16 mph, cleaning things up beautifully. Swell is 6ft from the NW, period 6 seconds, and combined energy is 264 – solid moderate. It’s a marginal call, but with offshore wind and that much size, it’s your best chance. The direction is a bit off the optimum SW, but still, clean waves are clean waves. That afternoon, the swell drops to 4ft, but the wind stays cross-off, so there’s still something to work with.

After that, it’s flat again. The 21st through the 23rd are back to tiny 0.3ft swells with long periods (14-15 seconds) and clean wind, but no power. The combined energy is in the single digits.

Then Monday the 24th morning shows a small pulse: 4ft from the SSW at 7 seconds, with 128 combined energy. The wind is cross-off from the NNW at 9 mph, so it’s clean, but the conditions are described as very ordinary. It’s surfable, but nothing special.

The rest of the run into the 27th is mostly small, cross-shore, or messy. No other real windows.

Mark your calendar for Thursday the 20th morning. That’s your best bet.

Rusty.
