Hey, Rusty here again. Let’s talk the same stretch, but in feet and Fahrenheit for the imperial crew.
This 16-day look for St Andrews State Park is a rough one. We’re looking at a long, dry spell of bumpy, knee-high junk. The first real chance to get wet doesn’t come until Sunday, July 19th. Before that, from today through Saturday the 18th, the wind is mostly cross-onshore or straight onshore, the swell is tiny (2 ft to 5 ft) and has no period to speak of. The combined energy is all in the weak range (19 to 91). It’s all poor conditions – leave the board in the car.
Come Sunday the 19th, there’s a small glimmer. The morning at St Andrews State Park turns glassy – flat calm wind. That’s a big plus. We’ve got a 3 ft swell from the WSW, but the period is only 5 seconds, so it’s disorganized windswell, not real groundswell. The water temp is 87°F, about a degree and a half warmer than usual for this time of year. The combined energy is weak at 49. It’s small and weak, but that glass makes it rideable for a beginner or a longboarder. Crowds are just *sometimes*, so you might have some room.
Monday the 20th and Tuesday the 21st are a wash – more storms, bumpy winds, and the swell drops right off to 2 ft to 3 ft. Weak, messy.
The last few days of the window, from Thursday the 24th onward, show a few clean windows with light cross-offshore breezes. Thursday morning and afternoon (24th) have 3 ft from the WSW with clean conditions. Saturday morning the 25th and Monday morning the 27th also look clean, but the swell is just 2 ft and 2 ft, with periods of 4 seconds and combined energy of 14 and 8. That’s tiny, gutless surf. It’s paddle-board flatness.
The only real standout is Sunday the 19th morning – it’s the sole day with glassy wind and enough swell to push a log. It’s not a classic, but it’s the only game in town. Otherwise, this is a long quiet stretch. Forecasts can flip, so keep an eye out.
Rusty, out.
