Updates in hr min s Forecast update imminent
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what Figueira da Foz - Cabedelo has got cooking for us over the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you—it's a slow start. We're looking at a stretch of pretty ordinary conditions from Monday through to the following weekend. The swell is tiny, mostly around 1 ft to 2 ft, with a mix of weak wind chop and messy cross-onshore breezes. There's nothing worth paddling out for here; it's more of a beach day than a surf day.
We do finally see a bit of a pulse of energy arriving on Sunday, July 13th, with the swell bumping up to 4 ft. The period is short though, around 8 seconds, so it'll be a bit weak and sectiony. The breeze is light, but still cross-onshore, so it's only just scraping into the marginal category. Not exactly firing.
The real standout in this entire 16-day window is shaping up for Saturday, July 19th, on the morning session. We've got a clean 7 ft NNW swell rolling in with a light offshore breeze from the NNE. The combined energy jumps right up to 562, and the wind is set to be offshore, which should make for some clean, lined-up waves. Keep in mind, at 7 ft, this is getting chunky and is really only for experienced surfers. The swell is coming from the NNW, which is spot on for Cabedelo's optimum direction. After all that small, grovely stuff, this is the window to circle.
Following that, Monday the 21st looks promising too, with a slightly smaller 6 ft swell and a light offshore breeze in the morning. It's not quite the standout of the 19th, but still a very solid option.
So, to sum it up: the next week and a half is mostly a write-off. Save your energy, clean your wetsuit, and get ready for that Saturday the 19th of July morning session. That's the one that's got my blood pumping. After that, there's a chance for more fun on the Monday as well. It's a waiting game, but it should be worth it.
Rusty.
