Santa Barbara Surf Forecast - for Friday - 2/26/2010

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 (280-300) and weaker SW swell (190-220) will hold into Friday…and the swell periods will shorten up which will help the swell to get a little deeper into Santa Barbara proper.

Look for surf in the chest-shoulder high range for most of the average spots. Standout South County breaks will be in the chest-head high range with some inconsistent overhead sets sneaking in on the lower tides.

Winds will be light and variable through the morning but look for S-SE flow to start to increase around midmorning…and then S-SE winds around 10-15+ knots by the afternoon. Onshore S winds will increase through the evening and we will have some sloppy 20-30 knot gusts after midnight and holding into Saturday morning.

Here are the tides…
