Trez Hir Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, grab a coffee and listen up. Rusty here. We're talkin' Trez Hir, and it's a bit of a Jekyll and Hyde setup over the next couple of weeks.

The overall pattern is that for the first several days it’s pretty bleak, then we get a short, punchy window of solid, clean swell right around the 7th and 8th, before it fades back into small, poor conditions for the long haul.

Right now, Thursday the 3rd is a no-go. We’ve got a 4ft cross-shore chop out of the SW that’s just messy. The combined energy is a moderate 206, but it's all junk.

Friday the 4th starts to look a little more interesting. The morning is marginal with a 5ft cross-offshore wind from the WSW, still only moderate energy (558). But Friday afternoon is where we get the first real glimmer. The wind swings to a clean offshore from the NW at 9 mph, pushing a 6ft WNW swell with 425 combined energy. That’s a decent paddle-out.

Now, Saturday the 5th is a weird one. Saturday morning is almost glassy, but a 7ft swell from the WNW with a very long 13-second period hits 1308 combined energy. That is a powerful, long-period groundswell. It’ll be smooth and lined up, but that long period can make a beach break like Trez Hir a bit too straight and shifty, and the tide could be a factor. Saturday afternoon settles back to a 6ft, 12-second swell with 896 energy under light cross-offshore winds. That's cleaner, but not the peak.

The standout window is definitely Sunday the 7th through Monday the 8th. Sunday morning the 7th is the pick. We get a solid 8ft swell from the west at 12 seconds, and the wind is offshore from the WNW at 12 mph. That’s a powerful, clean setup generating 1610 combined energy. This is excellent, expert-level surf. The afternoon drops to 7ft, still clean, but the wind goes a bit cross-off. Monday the 8th morning keeps the energy high with a 8ft set and a gentler offshore breeze. It's still big, with strong energy at 1067. This whole window is for experienced surfers only.

After that high, it tapers off quickly. We get some fun, clean surf on Wednesday the 9th, with 6ft waves under clear skies and light winds, but the energy (429) is back down. Then from Thursday the 10th, it goes flat and choppy for a solid stretch. There’s a long gap of poor, small waves with fresh cross-shore winds that'll be more interesting for kite surfing than a paddle.

We get one last, very marginal kick on Tuesday the 15th with a 5ft, 11-second long-period swell, but with 469 energy and the wind on it, it’s not one to get excited about. By Wednesday the 16th, we're down to 2ft and glassy, which is about as small as it gets.

Be patient. That window around the 7th and 8th is the real deal for the crew charging.

Rusty.
