The Lowdown
Alright, let’s get into it. I won't lie to you – the next couple weeks look tough. This is a run where we just don’t see any clean, ridable surf with good wind lining up for Spew Pits. Everything in the forecast stays cross or cross-off, and the swell isn't doing us any favours.
Right now, on Wednesday the 15th, we’ve got a weak 2 ft N swell with a period of just 8 seconds and energy at only 61. That’s not even worth paddling for.
From Thursday the 16th through Monday the 28th, it’s a pretty blank run. Swell nudges up around 3 ft to 5 ft at times, and the combined energy climbs a bit – hitting 170 on the 19th and over 250 a few days later – but it’s all N or NNE wind. The wind is cross or cross-off the whole time, and often fresh to strong. The period stays short, mostly 6 to 8 seconds. The water temp is 73° with a slight warm anomaly, but that’s small comfort.
There’s a small window late on the 28th. Tuesday July 28th, morning and afternoon, we see a clean 6 ft N swell with a better period of 9 seconds and energy up over 500. Still cross-off wind though, 18 to 21 mph. The guidance calls it marginal, and honestly, for a reef break like Spew Pits, that wind direction and strength will put a nasty chop on the surface. For experts only, and even then it’s a gamble.
After that, Wednesday the 29th and Thursday the 30th bring 6 ft to 6 ft N swell, period around 8 seconds, but again, the wind stays cross, not offshore. The energy is high – 416 to 490 – but the conditions keep it poor.
So, if you’re looking for a standout, there isn’t one. Nothing here lines up clean. The entire 16-day window is essentially a blank for proper surf. It’s frustrating, I know. Best advice is to sit this one out and hope the next forecast shift brings the goods.
