The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cooking for Spew Pits over the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – the next week and a half is looking pretty grim. We’re staring down a long, flat spell of poor surf conditions. The water is sitting at a warm 72°, which is about average for this time of year, but that’s about the only thing that’s normal. From Friday the 24th right through to the end of July, the waves are just too small and messy. The wind is howling from the north and north-northeast at 15 to 22 mph, which is a stiff cross-offshore breeze, but the swell is weak and short-period. The combined energy is in the low hundreds (317-115), meaning there’s just no push in the water. We’re talking about a solid week of nothing worth paddling out for.
The only glimmer of hope comes in the second week. On Sunday, the 2nd of August, we finally see a pulse of swell. The morning will have head-high-plus waves around 5 ft from the NNW, with a very long period of 13 seconds. That’s proper groundswell, and the combined energy jumps up to a strong 810. The afternoon pushes it a touch bigger at 6 ft and energy hitting 970. This is a serious window of opportunity. However, the wind is still a moderate cross-shore, not perfect, but manageable. Remember, with that long period, it’s going to break a bit straight and fast, so it’s more of a reef/river mouth kind of wave. If you’re a confident surfer, this is your window. It will be too big for beginners, and with the crowds being "sometimes" there, you might have a few mates out.
After that, Monday the 3rd still has some solid 4 ft NNW swell with a 12-second period and clean cross-offshore winds in the morning – that’s another good session. The energy is still moderate (503). From Tuesday onward, it fades again, dropping back to the same poor conditions we saw at the start. So, the standout is definitely the 2nd of August, with the 3rd being a good backup. Don’t hold your breath for the rest of the run.
Rusty.
