The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Gotta be straight with you – this outlook for Ramsgate (The Wall) is a tough one. We're looking at a long, dry spell with hardly any surf to speak of for the next two weeks.
The pattern is plain: there's just no energy coming in. The entire 16-day forecast is a series of "poor surf conditions" with wave energy readings that are almost non-existent, mostly in the single digits. The biggest combined energy we see is a paltry 83 (moderate) on the 19th of September, but even then the conditions are compromised. For the first week or so, you're looking at a complete blank. There's a tiny pulse of 2ft from the SW on the 11th of September, but it's coming with a short period of 5 seconds and bad wind, so it's not worth getting wet for.
The best of a bad bunch looks like Saturday the 19th of September. We get a bit of a lift with a 4ft to 4ft SSW swell, but it's got a short period of 5 seconds and the wind is a cross-shore. The water temperature is sitting at 68°F which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, a real anomaly of 5°F. That's a weird one. Still, the wave quality is rated as poor, so don't get your hopes up. For the rest of the run, it's tiny dribbles or flat calm. On the 22nd of September we get a clean offshore morning with a tiny 2ft WSW swell, but it's so short period it'll be mushy.
The bottom line? There's no standout session here. The Wall is a sheltered spot that needs a proper SW groundswell, and we just aren't seeing it. This is a typical blank run for this area. It's not going to stay poor forever, but for now, leave the board in the car.
