Alright folks, Rusty here, looking at what's cookin' for our local spot. Gotta be straight with you – it's a lean run on the near horizon.
We've got nothing worthwhile on the cards for the first week. From Sunday, July 5th, right through to the following Saturday, July 11th, it's flat and frustrating. Swells are tiny, periods are short and weak, and the wind's mostly onshore. The jetty at St Andrews State Park is seeing combined swell energy readings barely getting out of single digits (1 to 37), which just isn't enough to push a wave worth paddling for. Water temp is sitting at 86°, which is about what you'd expect for the time of year.
We finally see a little pulse of energy show up on Sunday, July 13th. Monday the 13th afternoon sees the swell height bump to 5 ft from the SW, with the combined energy jumping to 155. That’s the first real sign of life, but the wind is ripping at 16 mph from the WNW, putting a nasty cross-chop on it. That’s not clean surfing; that’s a battle. The next day, Tuesday the 14th, has a similar 4 ft swell but with the wind onshore from the WSW. The setup is messy, with a cross-onshore chop. Frankly, this stretch from the 13th to the 15th looks more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer, given the strong winds and poor surf quality.
The only glimmer of hope, and I'm calling it now, is later in the run. Check out Sunday, July 19th. The morning shows a 5 ft swell from the SW with a combined energy of 124. That’s a moderate pulse. The wind is a gentle 9 mph, but it's a cross-onshore breeze from the SSW, so there will be a bit of texture on the face. The afternoon cleans up a little with lighter onshore winds. It's two weeks out, so don't book the trip just yet, but that Sunday morning session could be the one standout on this entire outlook for a bit of size and push.
For the rest of the 16 days, don't hold your breath. The final week drops right back off into the flat zone. This is one of those stretches where you're better off cleaning the wax off your boards and waiting for a proper groundswell to show up on the charts.
Rusty, out.
