The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what San Vicente Rivermouth has in store for us over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it's a tough stretch ahead. For the first week and a half, we're looking at a whole lot of nothing. From now until about Monday the 11th of August, the swell is tiny—mostly knee to thigh-high at best, with energy readings stuck in the weak zone for days on end. That's a long gap of flatness. The water temp is sitting at 71°, which is a touch warmer than average for the time of year. That's nice for a paddle, but not much else.
There is a flicker of hope around Tuesday the 11th, but it comes with a catch. The swell jumps to 7 ft to 7 ft from the NW, and the combined energy hits strong at 784–906. That's a proper groundswell with a 10-second period. But the wind is cross-onshore from the WNW at 9 mph, and the forecast calls it a marginal surf outlook. That size is getting into expert-only territory, especially with that bumpy wind. The setup might be more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing if the chop gets messy. For a river mouth, a longer-period NW swell can work, but only if the wind plays ball, and here it's not.
The rest of the run after that is a bit smaller again, with those cross-onshore winds sticking around. Look, I’m not going to sugarcoat it: the standout day is Tuesday the 11th, but it’s only for the big-wave crew who don't mind some chop. For the rest of us, keep your eye on the forecast—these blank runs don't last forever, and things can change.
This is Rusty, signing off.
