The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's be straight with you – this is a tough one for 10th Street (Avalon). The whole 16-day window is looking pretty grim. Honestly, most days are a write-off with poor surf conditions and ratings that barely get off the ground. There's a gap of almost a week of nothing worth mentioning from the start, and the rest is just not cooperating.
The first glimmer comes on the 13th of September, Sunday morning. We've got a tiny 3ft swell sneaking in from the SE with a short period of 5 seconds. The energy is weak (70). But the wind is glassy, dead calm, so the surface will be like a mirror. It's surfable, but very ordinary. Don't get your hopes up.
Then Monday the 14th offers a similar story in the morning – 2ft from the SE, 9 second period, weak energy (75), and clean cross-offshore winds from the north. It's another "surfable but very ordinary" morning. The afternoon drops off again.
The next real chance, and the only potential standout in the whole run, comes on the 23rd of September, Wednesday. That morning, we see a bit of a shift. A 3ft swell from the SE with a period of 9 seconds and moderate energy (132) gets cleaned up by a light offshore wind from the NNW. The afternoon is similar, with a 3ft swell from the SE, 8 second period, and a gentle offshore from the NW. The water temperature is a crazy 78°, which is 6° warmer than normal – very unusual for this time of year. These are the cleanest conditions we'll see, but even then, it's just "surfable waves." The rest of the period is a mess of onshore winds, choppy seas, and poor swell.
Honestly, it's a real downer. If you're desperate, that Wednesday morning on the 23rd is your best bet for a tiny, clean wave. Otherwise, you might be better off waiting for the next forecast.
Rusty.
