The Lowdown
Alright, let’s get into it.
Honestly, the next couple of weeks are looking pretty flat and uninspiring for Ristorante. We’ve got a long stretch of nothing on the horizon, so you can probably hang up the board for a bit. The water’s running warm, about 85°F, which is a good six and a half degrees warmer than usual for this time of year. It’s a nice swim, but it’s not doing us any favors for waves.
The first real chance of anything surfable doesn’t show up until Tuesday the 18th. Before that, it’s dead flat. We’ve got a few days of clean, glassy conditions with light easterly breezes, but there’s just no swell to push through. It’s a real bummer.
Tuesday morning the 18th, we finally see a pulse of energy, with a weak 3ft swell from the west-southwest. The period is a short 6 seconds, so it’s not going to have much push. The morning looks clean with a light cross-offshore breeze, but the wave energy is weak (73). It’s surfable, but you’ll be fighting for scraps. The afternoon turns onshore and choppy, so get your session in early.
After that, it’s back to the flat spell again until the next small bump on Tuesday the 25th. That morning shows a similar setup: a 3ft west-southwest swell with a 6-second period, and clean conditions with a light cross-offshore wind. The energy is a bit better at 92, but still in that weak to moderate range. It’s more of the same – small, mushy, and only for the desperate.
The last glimmer of hope is the morning of Thursday the 27th. There’s a 4ft west-southwest swell, still with that short 6-second period, but the wind is glassy and the energy is up to 94. It’s the biggest of the bunch, but it’s still pretty weak. The rain showers might keep a few people off the water, but the surf itself is nothing to write home about.
So, there it is. A long, drawn-out flat spell with a couple of tiny, mediocre pulses in the middle. The break is a reef setup, so it’s not like a beach break that can handle a bit more push, but there’s no push to handle. It’s going to be a board-shorts and flat-calm kind of fortnight. Keep an eye on the charts, but don’t hold your breath.
