The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty comin' at ya. Let's look at what's on the cards for the Tuncurry North Wall stretch.
To be honest, the next week and a half is gonna be a real struggle for us paddle surfers. We're looking at a long, dry spell with nothing but tiny, weak slop. You'll see some days with clean conditions, especially when that offshore wind kicks in from the SW, but the swell just isn't there. The first real sign of life doesn't show up until Tuesday the 4th of August, when a bit of SE groundswell bumps the energy up to a moderate 158. Waves will be around 2.6 ft, but it's still very ordinary. The water temp is about average for the time of year, so nothing wild there.
The standout moment, and it's the only one I'd really get excited about, comes on Wednesday the 12th of August. That morning, a solid WSW wind is gonna blow straight offshore, making the place look clean as a whistle. The swell is from the ENE, wrapping in at 3.0 ft but with a period of 11 seconds, so there's some decent groundswell energy in the mix. The combined energy hits 217, which is moderate. This is a beach/breakwater setup, so with that longer period, it might offer up some better-shaped lines than usual. The wind is strong at 15.5 mph, so it'll be a challenge, but for the expert crew who can handle a bit of power, it's the best call in the whole forecast. The rest of the run is pretty grim, with onshore winds and building, messy swell that's perfect for the kite crowd but not so much for us.
Stay patient, and keep an eye on that Wednesday morning.
