Updates in hr min s Forecast update imminent
Alright folks, Rusty here. Gotta be straight with you – this outlook for the local stretch is a tough one. We’re lookin’ at a long, flat spell with very little to get excited about. The first recommendation doesn't pop up for several days, and even then, it's nothing to write home about.
We’ve got a solid gap with no surf worth mentioning from the start of the period right through until the morning of Tuesday, July 7th. That’s a good stretch of days with nothing.
Now, onto the only spot on the menu: 10th Street (Avalon). This is a beach and jetty break, and it’s inconsistent, so you already know the drill – you gotta be patient. The water temp is sitting at 72° , which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year.
Tuesday the 7th morning is the only window that even flashes a "surfable" sign. We’ve got a little bump of 4 ft swell coming from the ESE with a short, weak period of 5 seconds. It’s weak, with low energy (71). The wind is light and cross-offshore from the WSW, which will keep the surface clean. It’s surfable, but it’s ordinary.
That’s it. That’s the only highlight in the whole 16-day run. The rest of the days are filled with tiny, flat conditions, onshore chop, or just plain nothing. For the majority of the time, the combined swell energy is below 100, barely registering. We see a spike in energy on the 8th (129) and 14th (154), but that comes with lumpy, cross-onshore wind and rain, making it a complete write-off.
If you're a kite surfer, that windy, choppy day on July 14th with 5 ft of slop and strong southerly winds might look more interesting than a paddle session. For the rest of us, it’s a long wait.
Stay patient. It tends not to stay this poor for long around here.
