Santa Barbara Surf Forecast - for Monday - 3/29/2010

SB

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.

New WNW-NW swell (285-300 with the prime portion of the swell coming in 290-300) will be filling in throughout the day. Some of the energy will already be on the rise in the morning but it will be getting bigger as the swell builds and the tide drops off.

For the morning look for most exposed spots to be in the knee-waist high range with some chest high+ sets showing at the top NW spots. Shape will be a bit swampy thanks to the high morning tide. By the afternoon the average spots will be more in the waist-chest high range while the standouts see some shoulder high sets. The local wind and windswell will also be on the rise by the afternoon…so while we get some bigger sets shape will start to get pretty hacked up.

Winds will be fairly light in the morning...with a little bit of a N-NW tint to it...not enough to junk it up but still enough to get some texture on the exposed spots. WNW-NW winds around 13-15+ knots will be on tap for the afternoon.

Here are the tides…
