The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it. I’ve looked at the charts for the next couple of weeks, and honestly, it’s a quiet one.
Right off the bat, we’ve got a blank stretch. From today, Tuesday the 21st of July, right through to the middle of the next week, there’s nothing doing. For day after day, the waves just aren’t showing up, and the wind is all over the shop. It’s a frustrating run of flat or near-flat conditions with plenty of chop and cross-shore breezes.
We finally see a little pulse of energy arrive on the morning of Sunday the 26th of July. Ramsgate (The Wall) might just manage a few tiny waves. The swell is from the SSW at 3 ft with a period of just 4 seconds – that’s short-period, weak wind swell, with combined energy of just 26 – so it’s barely a ripple. The real highlight that morning is a fresh NNW offshore breeze at 22 mph, keeping the surface clean. But don’t get your hopes up; it’s inconsistent and only for the keenest, most patient locals. Crowds are always a problem here, so even on a small day, it’ll be busy.
The rest of the month and into August is a total write-off. The swell stays tiny, and the wind is mostly cross or cross-on. There’s a tiny blip on the 4th of August with a 2 ft SSW swell, but it’s accompanied by a messy 16 mph cross-on breeze. The next day, the 5th of August, sees the biggest swell of the whole period at 3 ft from the SW, with a period of 5 seconds and combined energy of 36. Still weak, still short period, and the wind is still a cross-onshore mess at 16 mph. It’s not surfable.
For the whole 16 days, there is no standout session. If you absolutely have to get wet, your best – and only – bet is that Sunday the 26th of July morning at The Wall. The rest of the time, leave the board at home. The water temperature is about average for the time of year, nothing out of the ordinary.
Rusty.
