Alright, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s coming up for our local patch.
Honestly, I’ve got to be straight with you – this 16-day run is a flat spell. There’s no real surf to get excited about. The whole window is a series of small, weak waves, and the forecast keeps calling it “poor surf conditions” right through. We’re looking at waves that barely reach 2 ft at best, and most days are hanging around 0.7 ft to 1 ft. The combined energy is weak, with values like 37, 39, 14, 20 – all two-digit numbers under 100, which tells you there’s just no punch in the water.
The swell directions are mostly from the E or NE, with periods around 8 seconds or less – short period, wind swell stuff. That’s not going to wrap in nicely or offer any real shape. For a spot like Sebastian Inlet-First Peak (a beach/jetty setup), that’s just not enough to get the bank working.
Now, there’s a small glimmer on Wednesday, 15 July morning. We’ve got a 2 ft NE swell with a 8-second period, and the wind is glassy – that’s a rare treat. The combined energy is 48, still weak, but for this stretch, it’s the best of a bad bunch. It’s the closest thing to clean you’ll see, but let’s be real, 2 ft is knee-high at best. The water temp is about average for July, so you won’t need a thick suit.
The rest of the run is just more of the same: small waves, cross-shore winds, and a lot of chop. There’s a few mornings with offshore winds – like on Sunday, 12 July morning with WSW 6 mph, or Monday, 13 July morning with SW 6 mph – but the swell is too small (1 ft to 1 ft) to even bother. The energy is in the teens, barely a ripple.
If you’re a kite surfer, the steady E/SE winds in the afternoons (9-16 mph) might be more interesting than a paddle. But for us surfers? This is a long, flat blank. It’s one of those runs where the forecast can change, but for now, leave the board in the car.
Rusty.
