The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's coming up at Toes Over.
The outlook for the next 16 days is a bit of a waiting game, to be honest. We've got a long stretch of onshore winds and small, messy swell that's going to keep things pretty flat and unappealing for a while. The first real chance of anything decent doesn't come until the first weekend, and even then it's not a barnstormer.
The standout session is looking like Sunday afternoon, the 6th of September. The wind drops right out, going glassy, and that's a major positive. We'll see a clean 3ft swell rolling in from the south with a decent 14-second period. The combined energy is moderate, sitting at 537, but that glassy wind will make it feel much better than the numbers suggest. It's a real window of opportunity.
Before that, Friday morning on the 4th has a bit of swell, 3ft from the SSW, but it's a light cross-shore breeze, not ideal. The water temperature is a notable 73°F with a 7°F anomaly, which is very unusual for this time of year, meaning it's much warmer than average. Saturday morning on the 5th is a similar story, small swell with a cross-onshore wind; not great.
After that Sunday highlight, it's a bit of a downhill slide. Monday the 7th has a bit more size at 4ft, but the wind is on it from the SW, making for poor conditions. The rest of the week into the second week is a long run of poor surf, mostly onshore winds and small swell that just doesn't have any energy. The combined energy values drop below 200 and even to 105, which is weak. There's a faint flicker on the 14th of September with a 3ft short-period swell from the west, but the wind is against it, so it's not worth getting excited about. The whole stretch from the 8th through to the 19th is mostly a write-off for worthwhile waves.
So, to sum it up: save your energy for that Sunday afternoon session on the 6th. It's the only true standout in the window. The rest of the time, it's a case of watching the forecast and hoping for a change. This is a classic case of a quiet period, but it won't stay poor forever.
Rusty.
