The Lowdown
Alright, grab your board, let’s talk about what’s coming. This is Rusty, and the outlook for Sebastian Inlet-Third Peak is pretty grim for the next couple of weeks.
We’re looking at a long stretch of tiny, weak swell. The waves are small, the wind is mostly wrong, and the energy is just not there. It’s a tough run.
Starting off on Thursday the 23rd and Friday the 24th, we’ve got waves around 1ft to 3ft from the east. The period is a short 8 seconds, so it’s windswell, and the energy is weak. The wind is cross-onshore, so it’s going to be choppy and messy. Not worth suiting up.
Saturday the 25th morning gives us a small window. The swell is still only 2ft from the east, but the wind goes glassy for a bit. The water is a warm 83°F, which is about average for this time of year. The wave energy is weak (58). It’s surfable, but it’s very ordinary. Keep an eye out for thunderstorms.
From Sunday the 26th through the end of July, the swell drops to barely 2ft, and the energy is minimal. The wind does turn offshore or cross-offshore on a few days, which cleans things up, but with waves that small, you’re basically floating. Not much to get excited about.
The first week of August is more of the same. Tiny east swell, 1ft to 1ft, with a short period. The wind is offshore on a few mornings, which is nice and clean, but again, the lack of swell is the problem. The wave energy is in the teens and twenties. You’d be better off on the beach.
There is one little spike that stands out. On Friday the 7th of August, the swell picks up to 4ft from the east. The period is short at 6 seconds, so it’s a bit of a windswell bump, but the energy jumps to a moderate 135. The problem is the wind is cross-onshore and choppy, so the quality is going to be poor. It’s the biggest swell of the forecast, but it’s not clean. For the experienced guys, it might offer something, but beginners should stay away as it’s over 5ft. For the crew that just wants to get wet, Saturday the 3rd of August morning has a glassy 1ft wave, but it’s a total micro-swell.
Overall, it’s a tough period. The surf is small and the conditions are often poor. Don’t expect much, but if you’re patient, that bump on the 7th might be the only thing that gets your heart rate up, even if it’s messy.
Stay tuned, forecasts can change. This is Rusty, signing off.
