Effective: Monday, August 4
Overview:
SSW swell slowly on the rise... details below.
Seasonal heat and humidity continues with evening light show potential. Winds are light and variable early with generally weak sea-breezes coming on by mid-morning.
Into the Weekend:
Last week over the SPAC was pretty uneventful with respect to storms perfectly targeting Costa Azul, yet we do have some SSW waves ahead for this week. As usual, focal breaks are critical with the overall low energy.
A boost in SSW(205-210) swell shows today with a peak overnight through early Tuesday. The direction still looks a bit southerly to do wide-spread, but good exposed south spots see waist-chest/shoulder high waves, while focals pull in some inconsistent head high range waves.
Another SSW(205-210) swell shows Thursday and Friday with slightly smaller results.

*Keep in mind, when we speak of good exposures, we are emphasizing the primo spots - since most of the coast faces WNW, these are only a select few. Focals represent those breaks within the good exposures that further compress the swell energy for larger sets.
Tropical:
At this point: nothing. We'll be watching for developments. Keep an eye on the NHC's website.
Long Range:
Looking at the South Seas forecast over the week ahead, we are left with little hope...weak and distant storms crop up over the seascape...not enough to excite for sure.
Besides background scraps, many days of kayaking and snorkeling will be the mainstay for the resort.
Things can and do change, so be checking back. Plus, with the tropical season in full swing...something else could crop up.
