So, are we happy
now? WHAT A WEEKEND OF SURF! Holy offshore and perfect Batman! I hope you all got some great waves and didn’t
mind that you had to share them with a few friends. We’ve got more surf on tap for Tuesday but conditions have certainly
deteriorated compared to Sat and Sun.
Either way we’ll see a quick little NW adding energy to give the remaining
swell a little boost. Still some
shoulder/HH waves around SD County and a waist/chest for OC/LA. Waves thru the day as things start to clean
up (except the water quality…YUCKO!). Wednesday we’re still looking at
chest/shoulder high waves to start the day and backing off to waist/chest in SD
by the end of the day. Thursday sees waist/chest thru the day.
Friday is the smallest day of the
week with another little southern storm front moving in. Look for funky windswell in the waist high
range that continues on into Saturday. There’s
another smaller NW that should still in late Sat and into Sun. Not a huge improvement in size but a little more
energy and waves in the waist/chest high range through the day with some
slightly bigger sets at the better winter spots. There’s a bit more angle on this one so
expect OC and LA to see less of this swell.
Monday things back off as the
system heads out of town and things clean up but wave size drops off to waist
high. The North Pacific is full of
surprises this winter. Some interesting
energy spinning around on the west side.
Will keep an eye on it and let you know.
The weather couldn’t
have been more perfect for that last swell. That’s all a distant memory now as we
deal with showers across SD County tonight. There was enough rainfall to create
that every so popular runoff we love to hate.
Be smart and keep your distance from stormdrains, river, bay and lagoon
mouths for at least 72 hours. As the
system swings over us tonight we can expect clearing and sunny Tuesday with air
temps back up into the upper 60s for a few days and then it’ll cool down as
that next system rolls into town late Thurs and into Friday. Winds will remain mostly E/SE for the next
few days. Slight chance of rain at this
point from the next southerly system Friday but clearing for the weekend with
partial sunshine Sat and clear skies Sunday.
Water temps seemed to have dropped a few degrees and are sitting in the low
60s/high 50s. We’re approaching more extreme
tides through the week. We’re looking at
a low late morning tide with a medium late afternoon/early evening high tide. The low goes negative by midday
Thursday.
Be wary of water
quality. We’ve had some spikes of bacteria at some of the local beaches and
with the stormwater runoff it’s definitely advisable to be smart where and when
you surf.
Otherwise…stay wet
So Cal!
