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 tide kills most of our surf through the morning...so expect a slow soft start for most areas. As the tide drops off we will see improvement for most of the WNW-NW exposed areas. North County will be pretty small overall thanks to shadowing from Catalina and San Clemente islands…look for mostly knee-waist high waves with a few waist high+ sets sneaking into the better combo spots (there is a little S-SSW swell out in the water too). South County standouts will be in the chest-shoulder high range on sets…and maybe a few shoulder high+ sets at best spots.
New WNW-NW swell (280-300) starts filling in later in the day…possibly helping to increase size and consistency a touch at the best NW facing breaks as we head toward the end of the day. I am not expecting a ton of new surf before the sun sets, but it will be worth at least giving the top spots some sort of check if the winds seem light.
Light and variable to light offshore winds for the morning. WNW-NW winds around 10-15 knots expected for the afternoon…possibly lightening up around sundown.
Here are the tides…
