The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for the Tweed River Breakwall.
Honestly, it’s a pretty grim outlook for the next couple of weeks. We’ve got a long stretch of small, weak, and messy surf ahead. The first real surfable moment doesn’t show up until Tuesday morning, the 4th of August, and even then it’s barely a whisper. Until that point, we’re looking at several days of flat to tiny, choppy junk with onshore winds – a total write-off.
The only real standout window is way out there on Thursday morning, the 13th of August. That morning we’re looking at a pulse of 5ft swell from the SE, with a solid period of 11 seconds. The combined energy is strong (469), and the wind is light and cross-offshore from the NNW, which should keep the waves clean. This is a point break, so that long-period groundswell will wrap in nicely. The afternoon gets a bit bigger, pushing 6ft, but the wind picks up to 25 km/h and goes cross-shore, so it’ll get messier. This is the pick of the bunch, but it’s a long way off and the confidence is low.
There’s a tiny moment on the morning of Tuesday, 11th August, too. Glassy conditions with a 2ft SE swell, but it’s short-period and weak – just a whisper of a wave.
For the Tweed River Breakwall, the water temperature is sitting at 69°F with a very slight anomaly of -0.2°, so it’s pretty much average for this time of year.
So, to sum it up: a whole lot of nothing for a week and a half, then a promising but uncertain chance on the 13th. Keep your eyes on that one, but don’t hold your breath.
Rusty.
