Surf Check 11/14/12

Wow is it flat out there. Amazing weather but nothing to ride. Looks like we have some changes coming in the next few days but nothing drastic.
Today though it's knee high around town and maybe towards SD you'll find some waist high sets. Wind is SW at 7 this afternoon and water temps dropped with all that wind last weekend- we're at a chilly 62 degrees.
Tides the next few days are 4' at sunrise, up to 7' mid-morning, and down to -1' around sunset. The tides are killing whatever swell may be out there!
As mentioned above, we have some slight changes coming the next few days. First up- our beautiful weather will be replaced by dense fog tomorrow then overcast conditions Friday through Sunday. We may even see some light showers too.
Of course a weak storm will produce these gray conditions which means it also kicked up a little surf. Should have some shoulder high NW sets on Sunday with head high sets in SD. Nothing big but it will give us waves again. Longer range models show a better NW towards next Tuesday. Our weather should also clean up by then too.
Charts also show a storm brewing in the southern hemisphere today. Looks like 30' seas at it's core which should give the OC some chest high+ waves around the 21st. Might be fun if the forecasted NW shows too AND the weather cooperates!
