Overview

You could hardly wish for a more interesting forecast for this event. With a series of Atlantic storms sending pulses of NW swell in a fun range for competition and a good chance of long period swell from Ex­Hurricane Gaston in combination with another timely NW pulse delivering solid surf for the weekend.

Tuesday August 30

A slow start with small NW swell. Better sets in the waist high range.

Wednesday August 31

A combination of small N and NW swells for reasonably consistent waist + waves but with tricky NE winds.

Thursday September 1

Combination pulse of mid period N and NW swells for punchy waves in the head high range with larger sets. With lighter NE winds.

Friday September 2

Fading NW swell, waves in the chest to head range on the better sets. Light NE winds.

Saturday / Sunday September 3-4

By some margin the most interesting swell on the forecast at the moment. A punchy long period NW swell from Ex­Hurricane Gaston combines with a decent mid period N swell from a low pressure system forecast for tomorrow. There is a much broader range of model numbers for this but the outlook at the moment puts waves in the head to head and a half range on the better sets by the afternoon with light NE winds. The details here will likely change as we watch these swells develop.
