The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let's talk about what's coming down the pike at Spew Pits.
It's a tough start. For the first week and a half, the conditions are just plain ugly. The water is a bit warmer than usual for this time of year, around 75°. The wind is mostly cross or cross-off from the north, but it's blowing a moderate to fresh breeze, and the waves are a messy, short-period windswell. The combined energy is weak, barely hitting 100 for the first few days, and the swell is just junk. We see a spike in energy around the 7th of September, hitting 399, but it's still poor surf. The energy stays moderate in the 200-500 range for a few days, but the wind doesn't let up, and the quality is rubbish.
The only real time to even think about it is the morning of the 11th of September. The call is "marginal", but it's clean. The swell is 4ft from the north at 8 seconds, and the energy is moderate at 254. The wind is a moderate cross-off breeze, so it'll be clean, but it's not the Spew Pits we dream about.
After that, the second week is a long, slow fade. The swell drops, the energy falls below 200, and the wind stays onshore or cross-shore. There's another "marginal" call on the 14th of September, with 4ft of north swell and clean conditions, but again, it's just barely worth a paddle. The 15th and 16th see the swell drop to 3ft-3ft, with energy in the 100-200 range. It's flat and frustrating.
To be honest, there's no good session here. The best you can hope for is a couple of mornings (11th and 14th September) where the wind is clean and the swell is small but rideable. It's not going to be a day to remember, but if you're keen, you might get a few. Otherwise, it's a long wait for a proper swell.
Rusty.

Information about the Spew Pits Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Spew Pits provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Spew Pits can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Spew Pits surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Spew Pits) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Spew Pits may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
