The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again, looking at the same swell window from a different ruler. At Shipwrecks (Nusa Lembongan), the water's a warm 81°F, which is about normal for this time of year.
We're kicking off this Thursday, September 3rd, with some clean 4ft SSW groundswell. The winds are offshore out of the SE, keeping the surface glassy. The combined energy is moderate at 794. The swell period is a healthy 16 seconds, a proper groundswell that will love this reef setup.
Friday morning, the 4th, is similar at 4ft but still clean with that offshore breeze.
Things get interesting on Saturday the 5th. We're looking at a 6ft SSW swell in the morning, and the energy jumps to a strong 1369. The winds go a little side-off, but the surf will have some real beef to it. The afternoon pushes to 6ft.
Sunday the 6th keeps that energy high, with 6ft SSW swell in the morning and light, side-off winds.
Monday the 7th is another beauty. Both sessions have 6ft to 6ft SSW swell with light, cross-off breezes. The energy is strong, around 1194 to 1469.
The one to circle on your calendar is Tuesday, September 8th. The morning has 6ft of SSW swell, and the afternoon is 5ft, but the period stretches out to a very long 18 seconds. The combined energy is massive at 2490. For the experienced crew, this is going to be an all-timer. That long-period groundswell will wrap in with incredible shape, and the light winds will have it looking like a photo.
Wednesday the 9th keeps the quality high. We've got a 7ft SSW swell in the morning (energy at 2300) and a 7ft in the afternoon. This is strictly for the big-wave riders, but the quality is undeniable.
After that, the swell backs off a touch from the 10th through the 13th, but stays very good, with plenty of 4ft to 6ft SSW swell and clean conditions.
Then, from September 14th, we see another pulse. Monday the 14th brings back the size with a 7ft to 7ft SSW swell (energy over 2189).
Tuesday the 15th and Wednesday the 16th keep the 6ft to 6ft surf going, staying clean and consistent. Even into the 17th and 18th of September, we're still seeing clean 4ft to 5ft waves with offshore winds to finish.
No lulls in this forecast. The standout is Tuesday, September 8th for that long-period, high-energy groundswell. For the experts, Wednesday, September 9th will be a serious session.
Rusty.
