I hope you all had a good time the past few weeks. We’re on the tail end of all that fun, clean big
surf. Friday will be the very last of it for a while but onshore winds
will likely make a mess of things. Surf
starts out in the chest/shoulder high range but gets small pretty quickly...and
again…windblown. By evening the swell will
be in the thigh/waist high range with a bit of windswell on top. Saturday we’ll see some shorter period waist
high surf out of the WNW. That small
swell peaks late in the day/early evening and fades into Sunday with knee high surf for the second half of the day. Monday
we’ll see some very small windswell as a system moves through SoCal. Surf in the ankle/thigh high range for the
day. Tuesday we’ll see some small WNW swell and surf will bump back into
the waist high range for the day. Waves
back down again on Wednesday with
pretty small surf starting about waist high in the morning and ankle high by
sundown. The North Pacific looks pretty quiet
after that with no big storm systems in the forecast.
The weather is looking a bit more like winter with a few small
systems making their way onshore. There’s
a slight chance of showers Friday but it’s the wind that’s going to make things
messy all day. Winds blow offshore
overnight and into Saturday morning and then onshore in the afternoon. Look for clouds Friday and a bit more
sunshine on Saturday and Sunday. Then Sunday
night and into Monday we’re seeing more clouds again and a slight chance of
showers. I’d say it looks more like
south winds blowing, clouds and not much else. Daytime air temps are a bit more
winter-like in the low 60s and high 50s through the next week. Nighttime temps will be in the mid to high
40s. With tonight’s new moon we’re
looking at extreme tides for the next few days.
The King Tides are giving us a big high tide mid-morning draining out
all day to an extremely negative tide later in the afternoon. Water temps are in the high 50s throughout
the county.
Looks like the days of pumping clean swell are over for now
but there’s still some small stuff so stay wet San Diego!
Lates!
