W-WNW swell fades but holds onto enough size to be fun at the exposed breaks. The average W-WNW facing spots will be in the chest-shoulder high range with some head high sets at times. Lots of North County standouts will be around that size…but expect a little smaller, and less consistent surf throughout North County overall. Standout WNW-NW breaks, mostly from La Jolla southward, will have more shoulder-overhead surf with the occasional set going a couple of feet overhead. Best shape will likely be on the points and reefs but expect the beach breaks to start to improve as the swell drops back a few notches.
Winds look good for the morning but switch onshore out of the W-WNW around 10-15+ knots for the afternoon. Expect increasing cloudiness throughout the day…with a chance at some more rain/showers moving in on Tuesday.

San Diego Surf Forecast - For Friday - 1/15/10
Make sure to read the full region forecast...it will help this one make sense, (Not promising any miracles though). Click here for the full forecast www.socalsurf.com.
San Diego likes the W-WNW swells and will continue to pull in lots of surf despite the slow drop in the swell mix. North County will continue to be a little bit more shadowed and less consistent than South County but expect rideable, even good-sized surf at pretty much any exposed break. The high-tide will make things a little funky through the morning but conditions will stay nice throughout the day so we will be able to wait out the tide drop a little better than days where it is a race between the wind/tide.
Sizewise the average W-WNW facing spots will be in the shoulder-overhead range on the sets…with some occasional bigger waves still mixing in at times. The standout WNW-NW facing spots, mostly through South County, will be running consistently overhead with waves going several feet overhead on the biggest sets. Points/reefs will continue to have the best shape…most of the pure beach breaks will be pretty walled up unless there is some sort of structure or buried treasure to break up the swell.
Look for clean conditions with E winds around 10-15+ knots for the morning and some gusts near 20+ knots near passes and canyons. It will be pretty chilly in the morning but hopefully it will warm up through the middle of the day. Look for light and variable winds through the afternoon…likely keeping things pretty surfable throughout the day.

San Diego Surf Forecast - For Tuesday - 1/12/10

The surf will continue to be pretty solid in San Diego on Tuesday. The biggest size will stick mostly through the south half of the county, but there is enough energy coming in from all over that the whole county will have rideable surf once the tide drops off a bit.
Look for the average spots, and most of North County, to see surf in the chest-head high range. Standout WNW-NW facing spots will be in the shoulder-overhead range with some sets going a couple-feet+ overhead on the bigger sets (and the lower tides). Shapewise the points/reefs will have the best shape…but there may be a few beach breaks that have enough junk (piers/jetties/rocks) to punch a couple of corners in the mostly lined up swell.
Winds look good…mostly light and variable to light offshore for the morning…then variable onshore starting around brunchtime and holding through the afternoon. Keep an eye on conditions around sunset…it looks like those winds may lay down as the sun starts to slip out.
