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.
On Saturday we will see mostly leftover WNW-NW energy…sort of mix of the steeper NW swell from earlier in the week and some of the local windswell that has brewed up the last couple of days. Most spots will be on the small side with surf in the ankle-knee high range with some inconsistent knee-waist high sets. The standout NW facing spots…mostly in south county…will have some more waist-chest high waves showing on the lower tides.
Sunday a new WNW-NW swell (285-300) fills in and wave heights come up slightly…but mostly the “push” and the consistency of the surf will improve. We can still expect a lot of spots to be in the knee-waist high range while the standouts see waist-chest high surf and some occasional bigger sets that sneak in.
Both days look pretty clean during the mornings. Expect light and variable winds for most spots and a few areas with some very light offshore flow. It looks like we will be fighting a bit of a marine layer…maybe even some patchy fog…so don’t be surprised if visibility isn’t always that good. The winds should stay on the light side through the afternoons on both Saturday and Sunday…but expect the sea-breeze to develop enough to driving some variable 10-12 knot onshore flow into the more exposed spots.
Here are the tides…
