The Lowdown
G'day, Rusty here. Look, I've scanned the charts for the next 16 days and, to be honest, it's a tough stretch for us. The models are showing a whole lot of nothing for Damp, and that's the only spot we've got on the cards. Let's break it down.
We start with nothing. From Thursday the 10th right through to the morning of Tuesday the 16th, there's absolutely no surf to be had. It's a flat, frustrating run. The water is sitting at 64°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, but that's small comfort when there's no wave to ride. The wind is often offshore or clean, but it doesn't matter because there's no energy in the water. The combined swell energy is a big fat zero (0) for every single window.
Then, on Tuesday the 16th of September, we finally see a pulse. The morning shows a tiny 1.0ft of swell from the SE, with a period of just 3 seconds. That's a weak, short-period, windswell. The combined energy is a pitiful 2. It's not enough to write home about, and with the offshore wind from the WNW, it might be clean, but it's barely surfable. The conditions are still "poor surf conditions" according to the data.
The pattern continues with a few days of flatness again, with a few tiny spikes. On the morning of Saturday the 19th, we get a 1ft from the S with a 3-second period, but the wind is a cross-shore from the SSE at 12 mph, which won't help. Then on Sunday the 20th, there's a 1ft from the N with a 4-second period, and the wind is light cross-off from the NW. The combined energy is a bit higher, at 4, but still, it's knee-high at best.
The rest of the run into the 25th is just more flatness. We get strong offshore winds, especially on the 23rd with fresh WNW winds at 22 mph, but again, no swell to work with.
So, the brutal truth is there's no standout. There's no session to get excited about. The only break we have, Damp, is a sandbar that's inconsistent and only rated for beginners. With the swell staying below 1ft, it's not even worth paddling out for a beginner. The wind is often clean, but the lack of swell is the killer. It's a long, dry spell. Don't hold your breath; the forecasts can change, but right now, it's a write-off.
Rusty.

Information about the Damp Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Damp provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Damp can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Damp surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Damp) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Damp 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. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
