Alooooooha!
I’m back and ready to surf! Looks like
Friday will be the day to surf as things get kinda small for the weekend. Some
waist and maybe chest high surf Friday
from left over Paul swell but mostly shorter period NW wind type swell. Size drops off for Sat and definitely for Sunday
with waist high and then thigh/waist for the end of the weekend. Some WNW swell will show up for late Sun and
into Mon wish size bumping up a bit
and back into the waist/chest high range.
Tuesday’s kind of a
transition day with left over WNW swell before a new late season SW groundswell
shows up Wed and surf at the better
summer spots hits the chest high range on the better sets. We’re looking at some slightly larger surf
for the end of next week as a system
stays low out of the north and delivers some potentially fun surf to end the
week. Overall not a stellar few days of
surf ahead but something to keep you wet if you need it.
Some
funky transitional Summer/Fall weather with some weak low pressure systems
bringing more clouds and even a little drizzle here and there for the weekend
and into the first part of next week.
Look for some gustier winds Friday by midday with scattered clouds. For
the weekend we’ll see more clouds, cooler air temps along the coast (high 60s) during
the day and definitely cooler nighttime temps (low 60s/high 50s)…feeling like
winter! South winds for the weekend to
accompany the clouds…hardly stormy but just not the hot sunny stuff we’ve seen
the past month. Still seeing some pretty
big tide swings in the second half of the day from the New Moon with medium
lows for the dawn patrol going pretty high midday and then really sucking out
for the evening session with a negative low.
Water temps are cooling off too…high 60s along the coast.
Some
smaller but still fun surf around town.
Winds will play a big factor on conditions this weekend. Looks like the AM sessions will be your best
bet.
Stay
wet!

Notes:
1)
With
cooler water temps it’s time to dig that 3/2mm out of the pile and throw it in
the car for that dawn patrol session or second session after work! Need a second suit or thinking about selling
some old suits to cash in for a new Rip Curl Flash Bomb? Check out Swell
Stuff's wetsuit consignment sale in Leucadia. Sell your stuff or buy a gently used or fixed
up full suit. Or have them stitch up
your old suit! New location: 948 N. Coast Highway
101 in Leucadia.

Next
weekend is the Cardiff Surf Classic
at Seaside Reef bringing “environmental awareness to our coastal communities.” This
awesome event combines green living with good fun surfing! And there’s a great grom contest too! Sign your grom up here!

for a beach cleanup this weekend or wondering how you can help keep our beaches
and ocean clean? Check out the San Diego Chapter of Surfrider's page
for plenty of opportunities!

Slater
and Fanning knocked out of competition in Portugal
in the early rounds? WHAT WHAT WHAT? Messy surf opens the door for some unlikely
winners!
5)
And
we’re still getting footage of insane Jaws from last week. Kudos to Keala Kennelly for this paddle-in
monster!
6)
And
don’t miss this Dorian
BOMB at Jaws a day later…it looks like an ant on a perfect little peeler…a
30’ peeler that is!
7)
And
last but not least…more footage from Jaws because…well, because it was just so
dang big and perfect!
