Been kind of a downer lately. Our water temps have dropped the past couple of weeks and no real surf to speak of.
We had a little bump out of the SW and NW yesterday for waist high+ waves around here and the odd chest high+ set in the OC. Today both swells have backed off slightly for waist high sets in north county SD and the odd chest high set in the OC. Water temps have rebounded slightly to 68 and the wind started blowing early this morning out of the W.
Tides the next few days are 2' at sunrise, up to 4' mid-morning, down to 2' mid-afternoon, and up to 6' at sunset.
So is there any hope in sight? Not really unfortunately. The W winds blowing today will increase tomorrow and send some waist high NW windswell our way for Thursday into Friday.
And a few days ago there was a small storm off Antarctica that will give us waist high+ SW swell Friday into Saturday.
The tropics are starting to become active again with some waves of clouds coming off Central America- but no hurricanes to speak of yet.
After that it's looking pretty bad for next week. No storms on the charts from the northern or southern hemispheres. Best case is to get the hurricanes to kick into gear this weekend so we can get some surf early next week!
