Great weather. Warm water temps. Not much surf unfortunately. Last few days have had some NW windswell and a touch of tiny SW groundswell for mainly waist high+ surf around town. And if you haven't been in the water the last few days, temps have been hitting 67 in SD. It helps ease the sting of grovelling in the mushy surf. Tomorrow looks to be the same.
Weather this week is going to have low clouds/fog in the nights and morning and sunny afternoons with temps in the low 70's. Just wish there was more surf to match the great weather!
Tides the next few days are almost 4' at sunrise, 1' mid-day, and 5.5' around 6pm.
Good news is that the NW windswell should pick up towards the end of the week and maybe get some chest high sets in south SD on Saturday. The weather though may get a little cooler this weekend though with more exentsive low clouds (it's catch 22- the winds pick up to create the NW windswell but it also stirs up the clouds down here).
The southern hemipshere has been downright boring the past 2 weeks and unfortunately we've had no solid SW swells recently. There has though been a little activity a few days ago but it only had 2 of 3 main points to create surf (1. Size of the storm. 2. Wind blowing for a long period of time. But no 3. High wind speeds). Due to the lack of high wind speeds, we should only get some shoulder high sets here on Saturday in far north county SD and maybe head high sets in the OC. Combined with the NW windswell, it may be fun surf this weekend (with a little more clouds and cooler air temps unfortunately). Can't complain though- it's a little more surf than what we've had recently!
