Sorry for the late Surf Check this week- the holiday has me all screwed up. Regardless, got some fun little waves out there today from the SW/NW. Sets are waist high+ around town, chest high towards O'side and shoulder high in the OC.
Water is 70 after a brief drop to the mid-60's on Monday, and we've 2' tides around dawn, up to 5' mid-morning, down to 1' late afternoon, and up to 4' at sunset.
Weather is fantastic again today. More monsoonal moisture coming up from the tropics has lead to thunderstorms in the mountains/deserts and some inland valleys. High pressure will build the next couple days to squash the thunderstorms slightly and give us beach temps in the high 70's and less night/morning low clouds. Then by Sunday the fog starts to return, the temps drop the to the low 70's, and the thunderstorms flare up again in east county.
As far as the surf goes, we have a little NW windswell peaking late tomorrow for more waist high waves towards SD. Up next is a little tropical storm trying to take shape tomorrow that may give the OC some waist high+ waves towards Sunday.
After that we have some SW on the charts for chest high waves around here around 9/9 into 9/11. There's another storm behind it that models show being pretty strong but it's going to die out once it gets past Australia and New Zealand. Hopefully the models are wrong.
And after that, we start heading towards the end of summer/beginning of fall, and charts show a waist to chest high NW for SD towards next weekend. All in all nothing big but both the south Pacific and north Pacific are sending us some rideable waves so I'll take it considering how bad August was.
