The Lowdown
Alright, mates, let’s cut to the chase. The next couple of weeks are looking mostly flat, with a lot of small, junky surf. We've got a long stretch of waiting ahead of us, but there is a light at the end of the tunnel.
The one real window we have is the morning of Tuesday the 30th. The winds are forecast to go glassy, which is a big deal. That will make for some super clean conditions, even if the swell is tiny. The swell will be around 1-2ft, and the energy is moderate at 272. The swell direction is out of the SW, which is exactly where we want it for Toes-Over. It’s a beach/jetty, so it’s not usually breaking with much size anyway, but a clean 1-2ft wave on a glassy morning is a whole lot better than a 2ft windblown mess. This is the standout of the period, no doubt about it.
Before that, it’s a grind. From the 15th through the 28th, we’re looking at tiny surf, with most of the swell hanging around the 1-2ft mark. There is a small bump in energy around the 21st, but the winds are going to be mostly onshore or cross-onshore, chopping up the surface. The wave periods are okay, hitting 14-19 seconds, but with that little swell, it just doesn’t matter. We also get a bit of a downswing in wind around the 25th with the period dropping to 13 seconds, but it’s still not rideable.
The water temp is a bit above the yearly average, which is nice, but the ocean is going to look like a lake for most of the time. The only other slight glimmer is the morning of the 30th, but as I said, that's the one to watch. For anyone wanting to get wet before then, you’ll be fighting an uphill battle. The conditions will be poor, the surf will be poor, and it might be better to sort out your gear or go for a skate. The beach will be a better option for a picnic than a paddle-out.
So, mark your calendars for that Tuesday. It’s not going to be big, but it might just be the cleanest wave we see in a fortnight.
Rusty out.
