Toes Over Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, let’s get into it. Rusty here, looking at the next couple of weeks for Toes Over.

Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – we’ve got a pretty grim run of small, blown-out swell for most of the period. For the first several days, we’re looking at weak cross-onshore and onshore winds slapping a tiny, long-period SW groundswell that just doesn’t have the beans. Thursday the 3rd and Friday the 4th are a write-off: you’re talking 1 ft to 3 ft with poor conditions. The combined energy is weak to moderate at best (187 to 479). Not worth paddling out.

Saturday the 5th is a bit of a tease – a little more size at 3 ft, but still cross-on and onshore wind, leaving it marginal at best. The combined energy hits 566, which is moderate, but the wind just won't let it clean up.

Now, here’s the one moment that could save this whole outlook: Sunday morning, September 6th. The wind goes glassy. Absolutely flat calm. We’ve got a 3 ft S swell with a 14-second period – a decent little groundswell. Combined energy is moderate at 476. This is the standout. For a couple of hours, it’s gonna be clean and rideable. It’s not huge, but it’s the best wave we see in the whole forecast. If you can get out then, do it. After that, the onshores return for the afternoon and kill it.

The rest of the first week stays similar: small swell, mostly onshore wind. Monday the 7th through Wednesday the 9th are a mix of 3 ft to 4 ft swell, but the wind is on it from the SW or WSW, so the surface is messy. The energy picks up a bit Monday afternoon (591), but it’s poor surf conditions. Not a great look.

The second week is more of the same, really. From around Thursday the 10th through to the end of the period, we’re stuck in a pattern of tiny 1.0 ft to 3 ft SW swells. The winds are mostly cross-on or onshore, keeping the quality marginal at best. There’s a quick pulse of short-period, 7-second W windswell on Saturday the 12th that gets the energy up to 536, but that short period means it’s just crumbly and weak – more for the kites than paddles. By the 13th of September, the energy drops right off (134), and we’re in the doldrums.

To be honest, this is a long, dry stretch. The only real chance for a surf is that glassy Sunday morning on the 6th. After that, it’s a waiting game. Things don’t look like they’ll turn around until maybe the 18th, when the swell starts to show a little more energy, but that’s a long way out and far from certain. Hang in there.

Rusty.
