The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get straight into it. We’ve got a long stretch ahead for Sebastian Inlet-Third Peak, and I’ll be honest with you, it’s a tough watch for the next week and a half.
The overall pattern is about as flat as a pancake. We’re looking at a solid gap of no real surf action for the first two weeks. From Monday the 27th of July all the way through to Sunday the 9th of August, the wave energy is just pathetic. We’re talking tiny, weak waves with no power behind them. The combined swell energy barely cracks 20 to 30 for most of that time, which is next to nothing. It’s going to be a lot of staring at a pretty flat ocean.
The water is running a bit colder than normal for this time of year, about 82°F at the start, but with no swell to speak of, it’s hardly a factor.
The first real glimmer of hope doesn’t show up until Tuesday the 11th of August. Even then, it’s nothing to write home about. We get a tiny bump in the swell, with waves pushing up to about 3 ft from the ESE. The period is a short 5 seconds, so it’s junky, windswell stuff. The wind is light offshore from the WSW in the morning, making it clean, but the energy is still weak at 43. It’s surfable, but it’s very ordinary. The afternoon sees a bit of a cross-offshore breeze, but the swell drops back to 2 ft. It’s the best we’ve got, but it’s a long way from a standout.
So, to be straight with you, there are no true standouts here. The whole 16-day window is a struggle. If you’re desperate, the morning of Tuesday the 11th of August is your only real shot at getting wet, but don’t expect any quality. The rest of the run is a write-off. That’s just the way it goes sometimes.
Rusty.
