The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s cooking at Spew Pits.
Honestly, this is a rough stretch. The north swell is pushing through, but the wind is just wrecking it. For the first ten days, it’s a steady fresh breeze out of the north-northeast or north, keeping it cross-off or cross. The waves are labelled as poor surf conditions. The energy is moderate, from 204 on Wednesday up to 552 on Sunday, so there’s power, but it’s ugly.
Water temp is 72°F – about normal for the season.
The one real bright spot is Saturday morning, August 1st. The wind drops to a light breeze from the northeast at 6 mph, and it’s cross-off. The swell is 5ft from the north with a period of 8 seconds, and the energy is 248. The forecast says “expect good surf conditions” – that’s your window. This is a consistent reef break, and crowds are sometimes here, so you might share it. This is the pick.
After that Saturday morning, it goes downhill. Sunday the 2nd still has 5ft north swell, but the wind turns cross with a moderate breeze, and the energy spikes to 501 in the afternoon – heavy but messy. By Monday the 3rd and Tuesday the 4th, the swell drops to 3ft and then 3ft, with energy falling to 115 and 87. Weak.
Wednesday, August 5th sees a shift to a west-northwest swell with a 10-second period, but it’s only 2ft. Not enough.
Thursday, August 6th brings a 3ft north swell with a longer 11-second period. The morning is clean with a cross-off wind and energy at 261. It’s tagged as marginal, but worth a look if you’re keen. The wind picks up later.
So, mark your calendar for Saturday, August 1st. That’s your best bet. Otherwise, it’s a lean couple of weeks.
Rusty.
