The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at the coming weeks.
It’s a pretty lean stretch ahead, I won’t lie to you. For the first week or so, there’s just nothing doing. The swell is there, but it’s a messy, short-period northerly windswell and the winds are just all wrong – mostly cross or cross-off. It’s going to be lumpy and disappointing right through until about the 7th of September, and even then it’s only just sneaking into marginal territory.
The first real glimmer of hope shows up on Tuesday the 8th of September. Spew Pits will see some clean conditions for the first time in ages, with a moderate east offshore wind grooming the surface. The swell holds at around 4ft from the north with a period of 8 seconds, and the combined energy is a modest 337 – not big juice, but with that offshore wind, it’ll be the cleanest wave of the forecast. This is a consistent, expert reef break so it won’t be crowded, but it's only for the experienced crew given the reef.
After that little window, it goes back to being frustrating. The wind stays onshore or cross-shore, the swell drops off, and by the 14th we’re into the doldrums with weak, short-period leftovers. The only other bright spot is Wednesday the 16th of September, where we get a slightly longer-period northwest swell at 10 seconds, but the swell height is small at around 3ft and the wind is cross. It’s a tease more than anything.
So, the standout here is that Tuesday afternoon, the 8th of September, at Spew Pits. Snag that window if you can. After that, you’re waiting and hoping.
Rusty.
