Ever heard the old saying "when it rains it pours"? That's how this week is shaping up. Today we have some small NW/SW combo swells- again- but it looks kind of fun in a small surf-wear no leash kind of way. It's clean and sunny finally and there's no one out, so why not get on it if you've got the time.
Further out we have another cold front coming through the region tomorrow which should give us a shot of showers. After I had just predicted no more precip and typical May Gray conditions for the rest of the week, the models have to spite me. Won't be a strong front but we may get 1/4" of rain out of it and some junky winds.
Luckily for us, that exits the region by Wednesday and we should start to clean up. I was hoping we'd see some inconsistent SW start to show by late Wednesday from that new solid swell headed our way but as of this morning that swell hasn't hit Cabo or even mainland Mexico yet. Best case is probably Thursday and that should last into Saturday. We should have head high to overhead waves in SD with 10'+ sets in the OC. Since we also have all that activity in the northern Pacific, we should have some NW wind/groundswell crossing up that SW and maybe the beachbreaks will hold. And as luck would have it, the models are showing another weak front coming through towards Friday evening/Saturday. If that's the case, Thursday afternoon and Friday morning are probably the call to get some of that good SW headed our way.
