The Lowdown
Alright, let’s break it down in feet and miles. It’s the same story. The first week and a half, from now until the 16th of September, is dead. Swell heights are tiny, mostly under 2 feet, and the wind is often crummy. The combined energy values are all weak – readings in the teens, 20s, and 30s, with only a couple hitting the 80s or 90s. Short swell periods mean nothing’s got any push.
There’s a small pulse around Wednesday the 9th of September with swell hitting about 3 feet from the ENE at 8 seconds and combined energy of 148 and 144. But the wind is onshore or cross-onshore at 12-15 mph. It’s gonna be choppy and bumpy. Not good.
Thursday the 17th of September morning shows the best we’ll see: 3 feet of ENE swell at 8 seconds and combined energy of 120. That reads as moderate, but the wind is cross-onshore at 12 mph. Sebastian Inlet-First Peak is a very consistent beach/jetty break, and it likes a NE swell, so this is close. But with that wind, it’s going to be a messy, bumpy session.
No standouts in this whole 16-day window. The cleanest conditions we see are when the swell is only 1-2 feet, like on the 5th and 6th with cross-offshore wind giving clean water – but the swell is barely ankle-snappers. You’re not surfing that.
This is a real dry spell for the region. It doesn’t stay this flat for long, so keep an eye on updates. For now, save the wax.
