Surf for Thursday – Cleaner than Wednesday

Thursday is looking like a surf day...but while it will be cleaner in the morning it will also be smaller... fortunately more swell fills starts filling in later in the day.

Swellwise we are going to see a mix of S-SW swell (190-220) with some of the energy fading out and new energy filling in. There will be a touch of NW windswell in the background but not much to make a difference.



Most SW facing spots will be in the waist-chest high range. Standout SW facing spots in OC, LA, and SD (sounds like a disorder), will be in the chest to inconsistent shoulder high range through the morning but will see some more-consistent bigger sets by the afternoon.

Conditions look cleaner as the slight eddy circulation backs down and we see light and variable winds through the morning. More WNW winds around 10-15 knots move in through the afternoon. Check out the NWS model for tomorrow morning at 8am.



The surf will be fun on Thursday...not great or anything...but playful at the right spots. Like a lot of the Southern Hemi energy we have see over the last week it looks like the points and reefs will have the best shape...while the beach breaks stay a bit walled and sectiony. Good sandbars/piers/jetties that can break up the swell will be worth looking at if you can’t get to a point and reef.

Here are the tides...

06:38AM LDT -0.2 L

05:36PM LDT 2.7 L

Hi Adam,
Did I tell you you're the best.
Would you be willing to stop singling out jetties and piers in most of your reports and go back to calling them structures?
I feel you are locally influential due to your forecasting skill.
Thanks in advance for your consideration of this matter,
Coconutz!

Hi Mommy issues,
I'm glad I struck a nerve with you.
Always hiding behind the keyboard a frustrated wimp that sucks at surfing, trying to come off like a cage fighter. LMFAO.
My post was tongue in cheek and you swallowed the bait, you pathetic little wimp.
Cocomutz!
