San Diego Surf Forecast - for Friday - 3/12/2010

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.

Just some NW windswell leftovers, background WNW-NW swell, and some inconsistent S-SW swell, on tap for Friday. Look for nearly flat conditions for the morning as we shuffle through the high AM tide. Most North County spots will be in the knee-waist high range off of this mix…but a few of the better NW facing breaks will have some waist-chest high sets showing after the tide drops. S facing spots will average around knee-waist high but there will be some inconsistent chest high sets sneaking into those breaks as well.

South County spots can expect waist-chest high surf for most exposed areas. The standout NW facing spots, mostly at the beach breaks, will have some shoulder high surf with some plus sets mixing in on the lower tides.

All areas can expect the surf to drop off in the afternoon as the majority of the energy drains out with the dropping NW windswell.

Look for E-NE winds around 5-10 knots for the morning with the potential for some 10-15 knot gusts near the wind-prone passes and canyons. Those winds shift to the NW around 10-15 knots for the afternoon.


Here are the tides…
