Oh
boy oh boy! Some fun surf today with
that WNW filling in and gorgeous glassy warm conditions all day. Some nice chest and even shoulder high sets
rolling in at the better winter spots.
We’re looking for that swell to back off a little for Tuesday with some small background SW
groundswell but a new WNW looks to fill in starting late Tues and into Wed.
This swell will have some nice energy which translates into…yup…fun
waves! Tuesday will see most waist/chest
high waves with surf bumping up Wed into the chest/shoulder high range with the
occasional HH wave at the standout north facing breaks. That swell peaks in the afternoon and tapers
off Thursday with chest high surf to
start the day and ending with some waist/chest waves at sunset. The good news is that Friday we’re looking at a new late season SW groundswell to fill in
and bump surf into the chest/shoulder high range especially at the better
summer spots with some shoulder+ sets.
The not-so-good-news is that we’re supposed to see some foul weather
potentially at the same time. Early Fri
is probably going to be your best bet for the cleanest conditions but I’m not
anticipating any crazy weather out of this system. Look for holding surf through Sat and early Sun in the chest/shoulder high range with standouts at the summer
spots. Sunday it looks like we’re going
to see some NW windswell that will bump up size but make things a little more
disorganized. Depending on the rain
showers Friday water quality might be an issue over the weekend.
Weather
is all over the map this week. Hot, dry
and calm/offshore winds today with things turning around for Tuesday, slightly
cooler (mid70s). Winds start off out of
the east but turn west in the afternoon.
Marine layer moves in Tues night and more cooling (low 70s) for Wed,
with clouds and chances of showers for late Thurs, and Fri and showers likely
Friday night. Air temps really “plummeting”
Fri and Sat with highs in the low 60s before clearning and warming up Sunday. Winds look to be an issue starting Thurs
midday with some gusty SE winds turning SW by Friday midday thru Saturday. Water temps are slipping slowly into the high/mid
60s. We’re between the full and new moon
so not much water movement going on at all.
We’ll see more movement come Friday with the early dawn patrol high tide
moving to the midday low and back up again for the evening session.
Looks
like some fun surf coming up…might have to catch just the right window on Thurs
and Fri with the funky winds.
Stay
wet San Diego!

Great
interview with Jack O’Neill… THE JACK O'NEILL!
The winter is setting in…you can thank
him for that warm wetsuit you’re wearing!
He’s surprised at how the wetsuit industry has grown…wow, surprised?

Before
Hurricane Sandy ravaged the East Coast there were some pretty amazing waves to
be had. Here is some footage of some
of them. Condolences and best wishes
to those who were affected by Sandy. Hoping for a speedy recovery to all that was
lost.
