The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what the next couple of weeks are shaping up like for our stretch of coast.
To be honest, it’s a bit of a slow starter. The first week is going to be a real test of patience. We’re looking at a whole lot of small, weak surf with most days offering little more than knee-to-waist high dribble. The energy in the water is just flat-out weak, with values mostly sitting in the low double digits, like 45 or 32, and poor conditions to match. A few mornings have a glassy feel, but the swell just isn’t there to back it up. It’s the kind of stretch where you’d be better off doing a few maintenance jobs around the house than staring at the ocean.
Things finally start to stir around the 16th. We get a pulse of energy that pushes the combined swell energy up to 221 in the morning, but it’s still pretty ordinary. The swell is a bit more defined, around 4ft, but the period is a short 8 seconds, which doesn't give it any punch. Still, the morning glass is a plus, so if you’re desperate for a splash, that’s your window. The wind swings around and it gets a bit messier by the afternoon.
Then, around the 18th, we finally catch a whiff of something better. The energy really kicks in, jumping to 456, which is a strong signal. There’s a building swell coming in from the northwest at 4ft, and early in the day it’s glassy. That’s a good-looking window – clean and with some push.
Rodiles - Main Beach is your best bet for that. It’s a fairly exposed spot, and this NW swell is right in its wheelhouse. On the morning of the 18th, with clean conditions and that energy, it should be the standout of the whole run. It’s not huge, but it’ll have some shape. The swell direction is NW and matches the optimum, so it should be lining up alright.
After that, it seems to fade again. The energy drops back and the surf gets smaller and less interesting as we head into the final days of the forecast period. The longer-period swells later in the week, around 10 seconds, have a bit more quality to them but not the size to get excited about.
So, in the end, if you can wait it out, that window on the morning of the 18th is the one to circle. It’s a promising one, but as with anything this far out, you can’t set your watch to it. The rest is mostly a wait-and-see game. I’ll be keeping an eye on it.
Rusty.
