Updates in  hr  min  s Forecast update imminent

Alright, Rusty here. Let's break down what’s coming our way.

Honestly, the first week is a total dud. From Friday the 3rd right through to Thursday the 9th of July, the surf is basically non-existent. Tiny, knee-high dribbles at best, with onshore or side-shore winds making a mess of things. The combined wave energy is laughable (33 to 101). Not worth getting the board wet for.

Friday the 10th of July finally shows a pulse. Swell hits about 0.6m from the S, and we get a light offshore wind, so it’s clean. Still very ordinary, but rideable. Then on Saturday the 11th, we get a glassy afternoon with the same size. For a spot like States Avenue (Gas Chambers), that’s a rare clean moment.

After that, it’s another couple of slow days. The real highlight comes on Wednesday the 15th of July. That morning we see 1.3m from the SSE with a clean, cross-offshore breeze. The wave energy fires up to 224, which is moderate. It’s the best energy we’ve seen. The real standout, though, is Thursday the 16th of July. That morning is the call. We’ve got 1.3m from the SSE, glassy conditions, and strong wave energy (229). That’s the perfect window for an intermediate surfer. The swell direction is spot on, and the wind is dead calm.

The window is tight, though. The wind swings onshore by the afternoon and it gets choppy. So, mark your calendar for that Wednesday to Thursday window. It’s not a monster swell, but it’s the cleanest and most consistent we’ll get.

Rusty out.
