The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s cut to the chase – the surf outlook for the next 16 days is a real bummer. The only break on the list is 10th Street (Avalon), and the charts are showing a whole lot of nothing good. There’s a big dry spell right at the start.
The first real pulse shows up on Monday, July 20th. The morning brings a 5ft swell from the NE with a short period of 5 seconds, but the wind is blowing cross-onshore from the ENE. The combined energy hits 111 (moderate), but the wind is spoiling it. That afternoon, it jumps to 7ft from the NE with a 7-second period, and the energy goes strong to 423. The wind is onshore from the SE. That’s a lot of power, but it’s going to be a messy, blown-out mess. Honestly, that setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than for a paddle surfer.
Tuesday, July 21st, keeps the swell in the 5ft to 6ft range from the ENE, with energy in the 240-256 range. The wind is still cross-onshore or onshore, so it’s choppy and ugly. Only the most hardcore locals might find something.
The only real chance for a clean wave comes on Thursday, July 23rd, in the afternoon. The swell drops to 3ft from the NE with a period of 5 seconds, but the wind finally swings offshore from the WNW at 16 mph. The energy is still moderate at 103, and the report says “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions.” It’s a 1/10, but it’s our best shot. That clean offshore wind is the only reason to paddle out. The water is a warm 75°F, which is a touch warmer than average for this time of year.
After that, it fades away to nothing. Tiny swells, wrong winds, and flat spells take us right through to the end of the month. This kind of blank run is pretty normal for the area when the conditions don’t click.
Rusty.
