The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cooking for the next couple of weeks.
To be honest, this is a tough stretch. We’re looking at a long, flat spell with barely a ripple for days on end. The first real chance of anything rideable doesn’t show up until the morning of Wednesday, 2nd September. That’s a solid gap of nearly two weeks of tiny, poor surf conditions. For Sebastian Inlet-First Peak, a beach/jetty spot, it’s a waiting game.
The only time the outlook even whispers about surfable waves is on that Wednesday morning, 2nd September. The swell is tiny at 2ft from the East, but it’s got a period of 11 seconds, which is proper groundswell. The energy is still weak (78), but the wind is glassy, which is a major positive. The water is warm, 85°, which is about average for the time of year. It’s not going to be a classic, but for a morning paddle with clean conditions, it’s the only game in town. The NE optimum swell direction isn’t a perfect match for the East swell, but with glass, anything is possible.
Later on Thursday morning, 3rd September, we get another window with glassy conditions and a 2ft East swell (period 10 seconds). The energy is a bit lower (57), but it’s another chance for a clean, small wave session. The afternoons look chopped out both days, so mornings are your only shot.
Honestly, it’s a bleak run. If you’re desperate for a splash, the 2nd and 3rd of September early are your only hope. Otherwise, keep the board in the car and hope the forecasts change.
Rusty.
