The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s break it down in feet and miles.
First week is ugly for Squeaky Beach (Wilsons Promontory). From Wednesday the 22nd through Monday the 27th, it’s all onshore wind and messy surf. Swell runs from 4 ft up to 8 ft, but with winds screaming 19 to 31 mph, it’s just lumpy, blown-out junk. Not worth the paddle.
The bright spot is Tuesday the 28th. Morning is still cross-on and 6 ft, but the afternoon turns glassy. We’ve got a 6 ft swell from the WSW with a 15-second period, and the energy is strong at 2187. The water temp is about 57°, which is normal for the season. That afternoon is the pick for experienced surfers – clean, glassy, and powerful. Crowds are possible, so grab it early.
Wednesday and Thursday the 29th and 30th drop to 4 ft and 3 ft, cleaner but smaller. Offshore winds on Thursday are nice, but the size is weak. Friday the 31st is tiny, 2 ft to 1 ft – barely a ripple.
Second week, Saturday the 1st of August turns glassy again in the afternoon with a 2 ft swell from the SW and an 18-second period – that’s a long-period groundswell, best for points or reefs. Energy is moderate at 400. Fun for a log.
Monday the 3rd of August afternoon is the other big one: 6 ft from the WSW with a 21-second period, energy at 2883. The wind is a light offshore from the E, so it’ll be clean. That’s a serious expert session, but that long period can make a beach break straight and weird. Still a strong look, but we’re a week out so watch the forecast.
After that, it’s back to onshore and messy from the 4th through the 6th. Best bets: Tuesday the 28th afternoon and Monday the 3rd afternoon. The rest is mostly a dud.
Rusty.
