Ok, get your hall
passes ready because you might just miss this next swell if you blink! Wednesday
is going to be small…very small but by the end of the day we should start to
see signs of life out of the WNW from a system that’s dropping in on us for a
quick visit. Thursday morning we should see a significant pick up in wave height
with HH surf at most beaches around SD, slightly smaller in OC and LA but much
improved from the past few days. Fairly
consistent with HH and some OH sets through the day as the swell peaks midday
and starts to drop off fairly quickly in the evening. Friday
looks like chest high waves to start the day and a second WNW pulse in the waist/chest
range to close out the work week. There’s
a decent amount of W so the west facing beaches will see some closeouts.
Saturday looks smaller with waist high surf or smaller around So Cal. Sunday
another but smaller WNW moves in and delivers some waist/chest high wind-type
swell. This swell hangs out through Monday with some slightly bigger waves
Monday morning. Tuesday we’ll see a new NW groundswell fill in but the energy looks
like it’s aimed a bit more south of us so we’ll only really see waist/chest
high surf throughout the day. Not a lot
of big swell makers looming out there right now. Might get kind of quiet for the rest of the
Thanksgiving holiday week and into the weekend.
Stay tuned and I’ll let you know if there’s anything juicy coming up!
Weather is
definitely moving towards winter as we have cooler daytime air temps in the high
60s and nighttime temps dropping into the high 40s and low 50s. Ouch…that makes for a brisk dawn patrol! Morning and evening marine layer make way for
sunshine midday for Wed. Thursday we’ll see more clouds and chances of showers
for Thursday night and thru Friday.
Luckily this “storm” won’t bring much in terms of wind so fairly glassy
calm days as those swells show up. Things
warm up a bit for the middle of the Thanksgiving week but we’ll still see those
chilly nighttime temps. Water temps have
dipped a degree or two and are in the high to mid-60s. We may see a little dip as that WNW stirs up
the cooler water. We’re starting to see
those early morning high tides slow things down again and the negative lows
draining out in the late afternoon.
Looks like some
fun surf with pretty nice conditions (minus the 30% chance of showers
Friday). Check the tides and pick your
sessions accordingly if you can! I’m
calling the Thursday mid/late morning session to be pretty fun!
Stay wet So Cal!
