Bit of WNW leftover, S and W on the way...



Oh boy!  More good surf this past weekend!  Hope you all got a slice of the action!  There were plenty of WNW waves and plenty of people out there to surf ‘em!  Looks like Monday morning will see the tail end of that swell with some fun HH/OH sets in SD and chest/shoulder for OC and LA.  Size tapers off quickly through the day with the sunset sessions seeing waist/chest with the occasional shoulder high set.  Tuesday drops even a bit more with waist/chest high out of the WNW and a new steep S filling in for OC and LA.  San Diego won’t really be seeing much of that as it flies right by.  Wed looks smaller in SD with the very end of the WNW and some new short period groundswell in the second half of the day. OC and LA will continue to see smaller S.  Things bump up a hair Thursday with that smaller WNW and surf in the waist high range and chest high sets at the better winter spots.  A bit less of that old S for OC/LA as the angle moves easterly from their swell window but a small SW helping to bump up the waves a little.  Halloween Friday stays about the same for both with waist/chest high waves. Saturday there’s a W windswell swell starting to make it’s move and it fills in a bit more late Sat with chest high waves and into Sunday.  Waves bump up Sunday to chest/shoulder high and bit of winds getting on it as a low pressure system moves into town.  Slightly smaller in OC and LA with some island blockage but you’ll still get the weather!

Weather wise we’re definitely moving into Fall/Winter mode as the full suits are out for the dawn patrols and we’re starting to see some beautiful sunsets.  Morning temps are cool and in the low 60s and highs are only making it to the low 70s but we’re still seeing some nice sunshine.  We’ll see sunnier skies by Wed with a little warming and then the morning and evening fog rolls in for the end of the week.  Things cool down a bit for the weekend as a low pressure system moves south for the first time in awhile.  Highs in the high 60s and slightly cooler nights.  To kick off the week the winds look to be light offshore in the mornings and turn westerly in the afternoon. By the end of the week as that system moves south the winds will also become more southerly and even a slight chance of showers for Trick or Treat night and half of the way through Saturday. Water temps are still pretty darn nice for October with low 70s all along the SD coast and high 60s in the LA area.  Tides are swingin’ something nasty with big highs midday and drained out negative lows by sunset.  Looks like the AM sessions will be fun!

Can’t beat these October sessions with overhead waves and water!

Have fun and stay wet!
