The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you. The next 16 days are a tough stretch for 10th Street (Avalon). There’s just nothing on offer that’s worth paddling out for. The entire 16-day window is a write-off. From now through to August 7th, every single session is tagged as poor surf conditions. The combined swell energy barely gets a pulse, peaking at a measly 92 (moderate) on the 25th of July afternoon, but with a short-period windswell and onshore or cross-shore wind, it’s not going to be clean. The truth is, this spot is inconsistent at the best of times, and right now the ocean is just flat or junky. The water temperature is 76° with a positive anomaly of 2°, so it’s a touch warmer than normal, but you won’t be feeling it standing on the beach. For a few days around the end of July and start of August there’s a total flat spell with zero energy. The only glimmer we see is a clean, glassy moment on the afternoon of the 29th of July, but the swell is only 1 ft from the NE – not enough to break properly. This is a blank run, and for this area, it’s a normal thing when the conditions line up wrong. Don’t bother checking the buoys for a change, just find something else to do. Rusty.
