The Lowdown
Hey, it’s Rusty.
Right now, looking at this 16-day stretch, it’s a pretty grim picture. You’ve got a flat spell that starts Sunday, August 9th, with a tiny 0.7ft ripple from the southwest. After that, from Monday the 10th through Saturday the 22nd of August, there’s basically nothing—days and days of zero wave energy, with swell heights missing entirely. It’s a long dry run.
We finally see a pulse on Sunday morning, August 23rd, with a 2ft south swell and glassy conditions. The water is way warmer than normal for this time of year, running about 84°F—that’s over 7°F above average.
The only real event is Monday, August 24th. The swell from the southwest gets some legs, building to 5ft in the morning with a 8-second period, then 6ft by the afternoon. Energy jumps up to moderate at 297, then strong at 616 in the afternoon. But here’s the kicker—the wind goes onshore from the southwest, especially in the p.m., so expect chop. For a beach setup like this, with wind blowing across, it’s probably more fun for a kiteboarder than a surfer. The afternoon size at 6ft is also getting over the 5ft mark for beginners, so keep that in mind.
Your best window is early on the 24th, but it’s a gamble. That’s the single shot in 16 days.
Rusty.
