Alright, Rusty here again. Let's break down this same outlook for The Maze, but in feet and Fahrenheit for you.
Honestly, it’s a tough stretch. The first time I’d even suggest getting the board wet isn’t until Sunday, July 12th. That’s over a week of waiting. The wind has been hammering the place – strong onshores and cross-onshores from the SW and WSW, turning any decent sized swell into a washing machine. The swell energy numbers are there, into the hundreds, but with that wind, it’s just ugly. No standouts at all in that first week.
Finally, on Sunday afternoon, July 12th, the wind shifts light from the SE, turning cross-offshore. The conditions go clean. The downside? The swell is tiny – only about 3ft from the W, with a short period of 8 seconds. The energy is weak at 83. It’s surfable, but nothing special. Monday the 13th morning keeps that clean glassy look, but the swell drops even more to around 2ft (energy 75).
If you’re looking for the best of a bad bunch, check Wednesday morning, July 15th. The swell bumps up to about 5ft from the W, period a short 7 seconds. The wind is a light cross-shore from the SSW, so it should be cleaner than anything we've seen. The energy climbs to 271 – moderate. It’s called marginal, but for this forecast period, it’s your top option. A little size and some cleaner air.
After that, it’s back to onshores and lumpy conditions from the 16th on. The morning of the 12th is still the cleanest window, just tiny.
So, bottom line: The Maze needs the wind to cooperate. For this 16-day run, it only does for a couple of days around the 12th and 13th, and a slightly bigger chance on the 15th. It’s a lean forecast. Keep an eye out for changes.
Rusty.
