Our swell will be surfable…but it isn’t going to be great, or even all that consistent. Basically we can expect a mix of small, soft peaks and decent morning winds that will at least keep it fun enough to paddle out and catch a few…but not enough that we should commit too much time to it.
Swellwise we are going to have fading S-SSW swell and a background mix of WNW-NW windswell and some weak SW swell.
Most spots will be in the knee-waist high range while the standout SW facing spots and the top combo breaks see some chest high+ sets…maybe even a rare shoulder high face on the lower tides. San Diego and Orange County will see the biggest sizes just because they are a little more exposed to the swell mix…but expect a few playful waves almost everywhere.
Winds look good…mostly light and variable in the morning with a touch of S-SE flow at a few of the more exposed areas. Winds will look something like this for the dawn patrol…
Again I would stick to your small-wave boards and gear…the surf is going to be pretty soft with long waits between sets…you are going to want a board that can pick off the in-betweeners just so you can stave off the boredom a little bit longer. The tide is going to be super low in the morning, so you are going to want to plan around that as well.
Here are the tides….
