The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the table for the next couple of weeks.
First off, I gotta be straight with you – it's a tough stretch. The forecast for Son Serra Nova (Mallorca) is pretty grim for the next 16 days. We're looking at a long, dry spell with hardly any swell to speak of. The water is sitting at a very unusual 85°F, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, almost like a bath.
The first few days are a total write-off. From Tuesday, the 11th of August, right through to the end of the week, we're dealing with flat, glassy conditions or tiny, short-period leftovers that aren't worth a paddle. The energy is basically zero.
We do see a slight flicker of hope on the 19th of August. Wednesday morning has a bit of a NNE windswell building, but it's still weak. The real, albeit marginal, possibility shows up on Wednesday afternoon. The wind swings offshore from the SSW, gusting up to 22 mph, and we get a 5 ft swell from the NNE with a period of 7 seconds. The combined energy is moderate (249). It's a short-period windswell, so it won't have the grunt of a groundswell, but that fresh offshore wind will clean it up nicely. This is the one and only stand-out window, but it's only for the more experienced surfers. A 5 ft swell at a reef break that rarely breaks is no place for a beginner. Also, this spot can get busy sometimes, so expect some company.
After that brief moment of hope, it's right back to the doldrums. From the 20th of August onward, the swell drops away again, and we're back to tiny, grovelly waves or flatness. The wind is all over the shop, but never for the good.
So, to sum it up: if you're desperate, keep your eyes on the 19th of August afternoon. For the rest of us, it's a good time to take a holiday or do some maintenance on the board. The setup is so weak for so long that it's pretty normal for this area to have a blank run like this. Forecasts can change, but right now, this is a tough one to work with.
Rusty.
