Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's break down what's happening at Ramsgate (The Wall) for the next couple of weeks. I gotta be straight with you – this stretch is looking pretty bleak. The Wall is a sheltered breakwater spot that needs a specific SW swell and some decent wind to come alive, and the models are showing a whole lot of nothing for the foreseeable future.
We kick off the forecast period on Friday the 3rd of July, but honestly, there's no surf to speak of. The combined energy is a flat zero (0). It's a no-go. The water temp is sitting at a balmy 66°, which is a whopping 7° warmer than normal for this time of year – very unusual and feels more like a bath than the English Channel, but you won't be needing a wetsuit for paddling since there's nothing to paddle for.
The entire first week is a write-off. Saturday the 4th has tiny 0.7ft to 3ft slop with weak 4-5 second periods and the combined swell energy barely hits 25. Even with a bit of offshore or cross-off wind, the waves are just too small and gutless. From Sunday the 5th right through to Friday the 17th, there are long gaps of day after day where the wave height is a flat dash (-) and the combined energy is zero. It’s a total flat spell.
We finally see a pulse on Friday the 17th afternoon, but it's weak. A 3ft swell from the ENE with a short 4-second period. The energy is a measly 23. Wind is light and cross-off, so the surface might be clean, but the waves will be weak and crumbly. This isn't a standout by any stretch. Saturday the 18th brings a 0.7ft bump, and then it's back to choppy nothingness.
Given the persistent flatness, poor quality, and the mix of strong cross-onshore winds, this setup looks far more interesting for a session on a kite than for paddle surfing. The conditions are just not delivering for us at Ramsgate. You can pack the board away for now.
Rusty.
