The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the cards for the coming weeks.
Right off the bat, we're looking at a pretty quiet start. The first few days at Rodiles are a write-off, with hardly any energy and poor conditions. You're not missing a thing. The water is sitting at 72°, about a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, which is a nice bonus when you do get in.
Things start to show a pulse of life on the morning of Thursday the 20th, when a small NW swell pushes the combined energy to a moderate 200, but it's still cross-on and messy. Friday the 21st morning is the first real hint of something decent. We get a clean 4ft of NW swell with a 10-second period, cross-off wind from the WSW, and the energy is solid at 420. It's surfable, but it's not a stand-out. Saturday morning the 22nd is clean and offshore, but the swell is short period and the energy has dropped right off.
The real highlight, the one you've been waiting for, lands on the morning of Tuesday the 1st of September. That's when a proper pulse of groundswell shows up. We're looking at 5ft of NNW swell, with a long 11-second period, and the combined energy hits a strong 637. The wind is light and clean from the SSE. This is the best quality on offer, but it's a fair way out, so keep an eye on the forecast.
The morning of Wednesday the 2nd of September is another cracker, with a very clean 6ft of NNW swell, period stretching to 12 seconds, and the energy is a powerful 782. The wind is light and cross-off from the west. This is the one to circle on the calendar. However, with that size over 5ft, it's starting to push into more intermediate territory, and the long period means it'll be breaking with some serious push – best on the point. The afternoon gets a bit breezy, so get your session in early.
Overall, there's a long dry spell to start, then a couple of promising days deep in the forecast. The 1st and 2nd of September are the standouts, but they're a way off. For the rest of the window, it's mostly small and ordinary.
Rusty.
