The Lowdown
Hey, it’s Rusty checkin’ in from Slip Point. I’ll level with you—this forecast is a rough one for the next couple weeks. Water temp is about 53°F, which is a solid 5°F colder than usual for September, so you’ll want a thick suit.
The first chance to even surf is Friday afternoon, the 11th. Swell’s just 2ft from the west with a 9-second period, and the energy is weak (103). But the wind goes glassy, so at least it’ll be clean. Saturday morning, the 12th, is similar: 2ft west swell, 10-second period, energy down to 70. A light cross-off from the east keeps it clean but it’s really nothing special.
From Saturday afternoon, the 12th, through Thursday the 17th, it’s a long stretch of poor conditions. Swell stays small, winds get messy, and there’s just no quality to chase. After that, from the 18th of September through the end of the period on the 26th, it’s totally flat. Most days show zero wave energy, even if the wind is sometimes calm or clean.
There is no true standout here. If you’re desperate, Friday the 11th afternoon offers the only clean, glassy window, but it’s tiny. This is one of those blank runs that’s pretty normal for this spot when the swell goes quiet.
Rusty.
