Got a couple fun waves out there today- still nothing exciting- but there's little corners to be ridden. The main source of surf is our continuation of NW windswell with some inconsistent SW groundswell. Best spots have chest high sets. Overcast 'June Gloom' conditions are on tap again today and the wind is W at 3 this morning and will top out around 10mph this afternoon.
Tides are pretty mellow today with a 0' tide at sunrise, going to 4' before lunch, down to 2' mid afternoon and up to 5' at sunset. Water temps have dropped slightly due to the W wind the past few days and lack of sun. We're mainly dealing with water temps from 63-65.
As far as our weather goes the next few days, we've got overcast conditions at the beaches today as a weak cold front moves through northern California and kicks up the low clouds down here. High pressure sets up behind it Thursday/Friday and we should have clearing conditions at the beaches by mid-morning and temps in the low 70's. Then yet ANOTHER weak front moves through northern California and kicks up yet MORE low clouds from Friday through the weekend (stoke). High pressure should return early next week. Just don't expect any real summer weather until then.
On the surf forecast front, it's been really boring the past 2 months. Just consistent waist to chest high NW windswell and no real surf from the southern hemisphere. Due to the lack of southern hemisphere storms, it's been really hard to predict the small SW swells we've been getting. Something small will flare up down there and shoot us a little waist high swell but it tends to get lost between here and there as well as get jumbled from all our NW windswell. The upcoming days are no different- we've had little blips on the radar down there but it looks to be only waist high+ SW towards Friday maybe? Nothing to skip work over but it should be rideable towards the OC.
And we should have a continuation of NW windswell the next week due to those weak cold fronts coming down the coast. Look for more waist high+ surf the next few days with maybe chest high sets this weekend towards SD.
Long story short, nothing exciting on the weather or wave front for at least the next week.
