Some fun combo swell for the start of the week

Aloha all!  We’re rolling into the work week with some NW wind swell on top of some new SW ground swell.  Monday we’re looking at some combo surf in the waist/chest high zone at most beaches with some bigger sets at the south facing beaches.  The SW is going to hang in for most of the day and fade a bit by Tuesday with less NW wind swell and some waist/chest high south swell.  Late Tues we’re looking at very little swell from any direction as Wednesday looks like knee high surf with small long period SW swell.  Late Wed a new NW swell fills in and surf bumps up through the night with some chest high surf by Thursday morning and building to shoulder high for the middle of the day.  Size should hold for most of Friday and then back off Saturday into the waist high range and taper off through the rest of the weekend.  The N Pacific holds some potential for wind swell still and the S Pacific looks like there is some potential for surf waaaaay off in the distance but there aren’t any real juicy swells heading our way at this point.

Weather wise we’re looking at a nice sunny day Monday with more marine layer and early and late fog later this week.  Air temps are looking in the mid to upper 60s all week.  Winds bump will be an issue in the mornings with west winds blowing Monday and Tuesday night.  Water is warming up nicely…high 60s along most of SD’s coastline. 

Gotta run but enjoy the surf Monday…more details in the next report/forecast!
