Updates in hr min s Forecast update imminent
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a proper look at what's shaping up over the next couple of weeks for our local stretch. Truth be told, it’s a flat and quiet outlook for almost the entire forecast period. We’re going to have to be patient because there is no real surf on offer for a long stretch. The first recommendation doesn't even come up until late in the run, and even then, it's not much to get excited about. Let's break it down.
We kick off with a long dry spell. From Sunday 5 July right through to the end of the second week, it's pretty much all "poor surf conditions" with zero scores across the board. We're looking at tiny swell, often below 2 ft, with short, weak periods and light to moderate winds that are mostly onshore or cross-shore. The combined wave energy stays in the weak range, often under 100 (like 25, 52, 22) – it's just not worth paddling out for. This is a solid gap of no recommendations.
There is one small blip of interest, but it's way off. On Wednesday morning 15 July, we get clean conditions with a light cross-offshore breeze from the WSW at 12 mph, but the swell is only 2 ft from the SE with a period of 7 seconds. The wave energy is a weak 32. It's clean, but barely surfable, and definitely not worth marking as a standout. That’s the only time the wind really lines up with any swell, but the size just isn’t there.
The only break in the game here is 10th Street (Avalon). It's a beach and jetty setup, and it’s described as inconsistent, which sadly fits this forecast. It’s fairly exposed to the NE, which is the optimum swell direction. But with no real swell of size and quality from that direction, it’s a no-go. The water temperature is recorded on the first record as 76°F with a 5° anomaly – that's much warmer than normal for the time of year, so if you do take a dip, it'll feel like bath water.
In short, for the next 16 days, there are zero standout sessions. The forecast shows a near-blank run, and for this area, that's not unusual when the conditions are this stubborn. Forecasts can change, but as it stands, you’re better off finding something else to do.
Rusty.
