The Lowdown
Imperial Version
Alright, mate, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer.
To be straight with you, the next 16 days are looking flat as a pancake. There’s not a single decent wave to be had. We’re looking at a solid blank run right through until the 12th of August. For a spot like 10th Street (Avalon), it’s a beach/jetty setup that’s already inconsistent, so a long stretch of nothing isn't totally out of the ordinary. The swell energy is weak, barely cracking double digits at best, with a reading of only 62 (weak energy) on the 28th of July. The water temperature is sitting at a comfortable 75°, which is about normal for this time of year.
The closest thing to a pulse comes on the morning of the 3rd of August, with a tiny 3ft SE swell hitting. But the wind is a cross-onshore from the ENE at 6 mph, and the period is a short, weak 7 seconds. That’s just messy, and the wave comment says it all – poor surf conditions. The energy is still weak at 64 (weak energy). It’s not worth paddling out for.
Honestly, wind-wise, there are a few moments of glass, like the morning of the 4th of August, and a few light offshore breezes, but there’s no swell to work with. The whole forecast is a write-off for a paddle. If you’ve got a kite, the afternoon of the 10th of August has a fresh cross-onshore breeze at 19 mph, which might get you going, but for surfing, there’s nothing. Hang tight, the forecasts can change.
Rusty.
