Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's cookin' for our local patch over the next couple of weeks.
Well, I gotta be straight with you – it's gonna be a tough watch for a long while. The first week and a half is pretty much a write-off. We've got wind that's just not playing ball, mostly cross-onshore and choppy, and the swell – while it's got some decent period to it at times – is just getting mangled. The wave energy is moderate, with combined energy values sitting in the hundreds, but it's all for nothing with those winds. The water temp here is 58°F, which is pretty much average for this time of year, so no complaints on that front.
Westport-The Groins is a beginner-friendly spot, sheltered from the swell, and it's waking up to a 2ft SW groundswell on Tuesday morning, July 7th. Sounds OK, right? Nah. That 9 mph cross-onshore from the WNW is making a mess of it. This pattern just keeps rolling on through the 8th, 9th, 10th... day after day of poor conditions. There's a little window on Thursday morning, July 9th, where we get some lighter cross-shore wind and a 3ft SW swell, but it's still only marginal at best. We get a few little bumps in size through the weekend and into the next week, with the swell pushing up to 4ft on Sunday, July 12th, but again, the wind is just ruining it. This is a long, dry spell with no real recommendations to speak of.
Now, hold on. If you're willing to wait, there's a light at the end of the tunnel. Look at Sunday morning, July 19th. That's over a week and a half away, so don't book the day off just yet, but it's the only thing that has me excited. We've got a 6ft WNW swell rolling in – that's getting solid, and at that size it might be a bit much for the beginners, but for the rest of us it's got potential. The combined energy is solid. The real kicker is the wind: a light 6 mph WSW, which is cross-offshore. That means clean, groomed waves. It's a brief moment of glory in the middle of a whole lot of nothing.
Overall, this is a grim outlook for the next 16 days. The only standout is that Sunday the 19th morning session, and even then it's a long shot. We might get a few more of those windows opening up as the forecast gets closer, but for now, keep your board in the car and your expectations low.
Rusty.

Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Westport-The Groins may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself.
