Mostly small and steep NW windswell on tap for the morning, most of which will pretty much slip past Santa Barbara. Look for some ankle-knee high surf for the morning with a few waist high+ sets at the standouts down near the Ventura county line. The windswell does blip up a bit through the afternoon but expect pretty sloppy conditions to go along with it.

Some lighter almost semi-variable conditions setting up along the coast early in the morning but shifting WNW-NW’erly very shortly after sunrise. Expect some residule bump on pretty much everything except the most protected breaks. WNW-NW winds 15-25 knots move in through the afternoon.
