The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty lookin' at the charts for the next couple of weeks, and it's a bit of a mixed bag. We've only got one break on the radar, Yo Yo's-The Wedge, and it's a reef setup that's pretty consistent, but it's an advanced, powerful wave.
For the first week, honestly, it's a bit of a tease. From Sunday the 19th through to Saturday the 26th, we're looking at a solid run of onshore wind from the southeast. The swell is there, ranging from 3 ft to 7 ft, mainly from the SW and SSW, but that cross-off wind is just making it messy. The energy is moderate to strong (976 to 2156), but it's not doing us any favors. The water temp is about normal for this time of year, so no complaints there, but the conditions are just "marginal" the whole time. It's surfable if you're desperate, but I wouldn't be rushing out.
Then we get to Sunday the 26th morning, and the charts finally smile on us. That's our standout. The wind drops to a gentle 9 mph from the southeast, and the swell jumps to 7 ft from the SE. The period is a short 8 seconds, so it's a windswell, but combined with the light wind, it's the best call of the week. The energy is strong (1020), and the report says "excellent surf conditions for experienced surfers." That's a window for the big boys. The Wedge is a reef, and with that size, it's not for the faint of heart.
After that, the swell drops back down to around 3 ft to 4 ft for the rest of the run through the 30th. The wind stays cross-off, and the energy wanes to moderate. There's a nice little pulse on the 30th morning with a long 21-second period from the SW and very strong energy (1111), but the wind is howling at 15 mph, so it's a classic case of a clean, long-period groundswell getting chopped up. That's a shame.
Looking further out, the first week of August has another decent pulse. The 1st of August shows a solid 7 ft to 8 ft SW swell with a long 17-18 second period and very strong energy (3058-3215). That's a proper groundswell with a lot of grunt. But again, the wind is a fresh 19 mph cross-off, so it's going to be a battle. The Wedge can handle that size, but the wind is the enemy. It's a promising long-range call, but the wind needs to ease up for it to be truly epic.
So, overall, the best bet is Sunday the 26th morning for a window of quality, even if it's a short-period swell. The rest of the period is wind-affected, but a reef like Yo Yo's can still offer a few good ones if you're an expert and don't mind the chop.
Rusty.
