The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for the next stretch.
Honestly, I gotta be straight with you – this is a tough one. We’re looking at a pretty barren run over the next 16 days, with really no proper surf to get excited about. The first hint of anything rideable is a tiny bump on Monday the 7th of September, but even that’s a struggle.
The pattern is basically a long, quiet gap. From now, it’s flat and poor right through until Monday the 7th, when we get a tiny spike. Then it’s right back to nothing for the rest of the week and beyond. There are several days in a row with no recommendation at all, especially from the 18th of September onward, where it’s just dead.
Let’s break down the one spot we’ve got.
Ramsgate (The Wall) – This is a sheltered breakwater spot, and it’s inconsistent, which is no surprise given what’s happening. The water temp is sitting at 68°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, so that’s a bit of a treat.
Monday morning on the 7th sees a tiny 1 ft swell from the SSW with a short, weak 4-second period. The combined energy is a measly (5), so it’s barely alive. Wind is a cross-shore from the WSW at 12 mph, which is not ideal, and it’s gonna be a bit messy. The afternoon bumps up to 3 ft, but that’s still from the SSW with a 5-second period, and the wind swings to a stronger cross-shore from the SW at 16 mph. The energy gets a little better at (52), but it’s still poor quality. Honestly, neither session is worth paddling out for.
Tuesday the 8th is even smaller, with a 1 ft or 0.7 ft swell, and the wind is mostly cross or cross-off, but the waves are just too weak. The rest of the week is flat or close to it, with that 0.3 ft stuff and no energy.
The entire second week, from the 14th of September onward, is a dead loss. Even when the wind goes glassy on Wednesday the 16th afternoon, there’s no swell to ride. The 18th and 19th get some strong breeze, but it’s onshore and messy with zero waves.
If you’re a kite surfer, the 18th of September with 25 mph winds and a strong cross-onshore might look interesting, but for a paddle surfer? Nope. This is a proper blank run, and it’s a normal scenario for this area when the swell windows are this small. Forecasts can always change, but right now, leave the board in the shed.
Rusty.
