San Diego Surf Forecast - for Thursday - 2/11/2010
Make sure to read the full region forecast it has more complete details on the incoming swell and regional conditions. Click here for the full forecast www.socalsurf.com.
The WNW-NW swell will continue to back down as a little bit of SW swell slips into the background.
North County breaks can expect surf in the knee-waist high range…with a few waist-chest high sets at the standout spots. The AM tide is going to be a bit high so you might want to let it drop off a bit.
South County breaks will see surf in the waist-chest high range with some chest-shoulder high waves at the better breaks…possibly a little bit bigger on the lower tides. Surf looks fun overall but again the tide may slow things down a bit early on.
Winds look good…mostly light and variable to light-offshore conditions early and then just variable winds on tap for the afternoon. If the winds can stay below 10 knots for most of the day there is a shot at some clean-up near sundown.
Here are the tides…

San Diego Surf Forecast - For Tuesday - 1/26/10
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.
New WNW-NW swell moves in on Tuesday and will peak later in the afternoon. Most spots will have consistent shoulder-head high surf with some overhead sets at times. The standout WNW-NW facing spots, particularly from La Jolla on south, will have more consistent head high and overhead waves with sets going a couple of feet+ mixing in. Look for more size and consistency as the tide drops through midday.
Winds will be out of the S-SE in the morning…not totally blown out early, but possibly a little bumpy in some of the more exposed areas. A few of the more protected spots will be pretty clean if the winds stay more to the SE. Rain and cool air temps will be on tap throughout the day. Look for the winds to shift around to the S-SSW around 10-15 knots by the afternoon.

San Diego Surf Forecast – Waves for Wednesday
The Swell
San Diego will see a mix of fading NW swell (290-300), some background SW energy (200-220), and some building NW windswell that pushes in throughout the day. In general look for the biggest waves at the well exposed NW spots in South County…and expect smaller, less consistent waves as you move further north.

Waves
Average spots, with ok exposure to the NW swell (and/or a little of the swell combo), will be in the knee-waist high range…with maybe even a little plus set now and then on the lower tides. The top NW facing spots, particularly if they can handle a higher tide, will be in the waist-chest high range with some chest-high+ sets as the tide drops to more manageable levels. Like I said above…look for the biggest and most consistent (both being relative terms) surf through unshadowed areas of South County.
Winds
Look for light and variable conditions early…but with a touch of onshore flow picking up by midmorning. Generally it will be clean but with a couple of pockets of texture at the really wind exposed areas, particularly around the areas of patchy fog that may roll through. W-NW winds 10-15 knots build in through the afternoon.
