Alright, I’m not gonna lie to you, it’s been a rough stretch for Ramsgate (The Wall). The short and sweet of it is, there's just no surf worth paddling out for in this whole 16-day window. We're looking at a blank run from now all the way through to the end of the period. The first tiny hiccup of swell doesn't even show up until the afternoon of Friday the 18th of July, and even then it's a sad little 3ft swell from the SSW with a combined wave energy of only 37 – that’s weak. The wind is cross-offshore, which is the only thing going for it, but with period around 5 seconds, it’s just not gonna have any push.
Before that, the water temp hit a very unusual 66°F on the 7th of July, which is about 7°F warmer than normal for this time of year. That’s a big anomaly.
Honestly, for a breakwater setup that’s as inconsistent as this one, a stretch of zeros isn't that surprising. The Wall is sheltered, so it needs a very specific SW swell to line up, and we just don't get it. You might see a crusty little knee-high ripple on the 17th of July afternoon, but with a 37 energy reading, it’s barely a ripple. Otherwise, it’s cross-off winds and flat water for weeks. If you’re desperate, the setup looks more interesting for a kite than a surfboard, but that’s about it.
I'll be back when the ocean remembers we exist.
