Alright, let me give it to you straight about 10th Street (Avalon). The whole 16-day stretch is a bust – not a single session worth talking about. I’m just gonna call it how it is.

From Monday the 6th, it starts small and weak. We’ve got a 0.4ft SE swell with a 9-second period, but the wind is onshore and there’s thunderstorms around. The water is 77°F, which is a full 6°F warmer than average for July – that’s a weirdly warm ocean, but it doesn’t make the surf any better. The combined energy is only 40 – barely a wobble.

Tuesday the 7th and Wednesday the 8th see a little bump to about 3ft to 4ft from the ENE, but with a short 6-second period and cross-shore winds, it’s just choppy and poor. Wave energy gets up to 75 and then 101 on Wednesday morning, but it’s still a mess.

Thursday the 9th and Friday the 10th, the swell fades. Friday afternoon actually cleans up with a light offshore breeze, but that swell is only 1ft from the ENE, period 7 seconds – barely a longboard ripple. Energy is 43.

Saturday the 11th and Sunday the 12th are tiny – 0.7ft to 1ft, clean at times but very inconsistent. Energy drops to 4 on Sunday morning – that’s as dead as it gets.

Monday the 13th brings a jump to 7ft from the E, 7-second period, and the combined energy hits 386 – that’s some moderate-strong juice. But the wind is cross-shore at 15 mph, and the report says poor conditions. At 7ft with that short period and chop, it’s big and ugly – more of a kite session than a surf session. Beginners should stay on the beach.

Tuesday the 14th is still solid at 5ft from the NE, but again cross-shore and poor. Energy down to 201. Wednesday the 15th morning is the best of a bad bunch: 3ft from the SSW, 6-second period, but with a light cross-offshore breeze. It’s called “surfable but very ordinary,” scoring just a 1 out of 10. That’s your highlight, and it ain’t much.

From the 16th through the 21st, it’s back to small, weak swell, with occasional clean windows but nothing over 1ft. The 19th gets glassy with a tiny 0.7ft from the E, 10-second period, but energy is only 24.

So here it is: no good surf options in this 16-day window. 10th Street is inconsistent anyway, and this kind of blank run is pretty normal for the area. Could always change, but right now, I’d leave the board at home.

Rusty.
