Alright, Rusty here. Let's break down what we've got.
I gotta be honest, this is a grim stretch for San Vicente Rivermouth. We're looking at a long dry spell right off the bat. From the 6th through the 12th of July, there's just nothing doing. The swell is tiny, peaking at maybe 2 feet, and the wind is onshore or cross-onshore, just blowing it out. The wave energy is weak, all in the double digits, so it's flat and choppy. Forget about it.
Things get a tiny bit interesting on Monday, July 13th. Early morning, it goes glassy. We get a 2ft swell from the NW with a short period and the energy kicks up to 122 (moderate). The report says "surfable but very ordinary," and I'd put it the same way. It's not going to win any awards, but if you're an intermediate and you're jonesing, it's the only game in town. We get another glassy spell early on Sunday, July 19th, with a similar 3ft NW swell, but again, it's just "ordinary" – a true 1 out of 10.
Looking out to Tuesday, July 21st afternoon, the swell tries to show up with 5ft from the NW and an 11-second period. That's a groundswell, and the combined energy is strong at 476. But it's still showing as poor conditions with a cross-onshore wind. That size, that period, with that wind at a river mouth? It'll be a washing machine. The water temp back on the 6th was 70°F, which is much warmer than normal for the time of year, so you can ditch the thick rubber.
So, here's the truth: there are no standouts in this 16-day forecast. It's a genuine blank run, which is pretty typical for this area when the swell windows don't line up. It's a tough one to call, but I wouldn't be marking my calendar for any of it. Forecasts change, so don't write it off completely, but for now, it's a miss.
Rusty.
