The Lowdown

Alright crew, Rusty here. Let’s break down the next couple of weeks for 10th Street (Avalon).

It’s a rough run. From Sunday the 6th right through to the 14th of September, there’s virtually nothing doing. The swell is tiny, mostly under 2 ft, with short periods and weak energy. The combined swell energy is in the teens or twenties (weak), and the wind is often onshore or cross-shore, meaning choppy, poor conditions. It’s a total blank.

Around the 15th and 16th, there’s a small bump. On Tuesday the 15th, we get some 5 ft swell from the ENE, but the period is a short 6 seconds, and the wind is cross-on at 15-20 mph, making it choppy. The combined energy hits 152 (moderate), but the quality is still poor. The morning of Wednesday the 16th is the cleanest of the lot, with a light cross-off wind and 4 ft swell, but the period is still short. It’s the best option, but it’s not going to blow your mind.

The biggest change comes on Friday the 18th. Swell bumps up to 8 ft from the ENE, with a period of 7 seconds. The combined energy rockets to 644 (strong). That’s serious power, but the wind is howling from the NE at 22 mph, creating a lumpy, cross-shore mess. That’s expert-only territory, and it’s going to be a battle. Saturday the 19th keeps that energy up with 6 ft swell and 577 energy (strong), but again, the wind is a fresh 19 mph cross-shore, keeping conditions lumpy.

For the cleanest, most surfable waves, you’re looking at the morning of Wednesday the 16th. It’s small, clean, and manageable. The bigger swells on the 18th and 19th are raw and powerful, but the wind kills the quality. Honestly, for that period, the setup looks more like a kiteboarding day than a paddle session.

It’s a quiet run for Avalon, but that’s the way it goes sometimes. Forecasts can change, so stay tuned.

Rusty.
