The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for the next couple of weeks.
Well, I’ll be honest with you, it’s a bit of a tough stretch ahead. We’re looking at a long, dry spell of poor surf conditions that runs all the way from the start of the forecast period right through until the final weekend. There’s a gap of about two weeks with barely a ripple worth paddling for.
The first real glimmer of anything comes right at the very end. On Saturday, August 22nd, the afternoon session at Walton Rocks (Power Plant) finally shows a pulse. We’re looking at a small 1ft swell rolling in from the East, with a period of 10 seconds. That’s a nice, long period for the size, and the combined wave energy is a modest 87 – still weak, but it’s the highest we’ve seen in a fortnight. The wind turns light and clean from the South, making it a cross-off breeze. The water is a warm 84°, which is pretty much normal for this time of year.
This is the only day that even gets a "surfable" tag, but even then, it’s described as very ordinary. It’s not a stand-out day by any means, but it’s the only one on offer. The break is a beach and reef setup, very consistent, and it can get crowded sometimes. The optimum swell direction is from the NE, and this swell is coming from the East, so it’s not a perfect match, but it’s close enough to get a few waves.
The rest of the run is a write-off. Winds are mostly cross or onshore, periods are short, and the combined energy barely cracks three digits. Sunday, August 23rd, has clean offshore winds in the morning with a 2ft swell from the NE, but the period is a weak 7 seconds, and the energy is only 39. It’s flat and weak.
For now, if you’re itching for a paddle, mark your calendar for the afternoon of the 22nd. It’s not going to be epic, but it’s the only window we’ve got. Otherwise, this area is looking like a better bet for a kite session than a traditional surf.
Rusty.
