Things are setting up nicely for the next 4 days. We have a considerable swell out the Southern Hemisphere streaking for the Southern California coast. This system isn't that big (in terms of wave height) but looks great in terms of consistency. Top South spots should hit a couple feet overhead and any break with a peek at the South should reap some benefits as well. Thursday and Friday will be the top producing days. If everything goes as planned we should see some nice sets by Thursday morning and it will continue to build through the day. The weather looks excellent,the early morning winds have been offshore early, yet tempermental later in the morning. Breezes out of the South have been coming up around 9:00Am. Not exactly wreaking havoc, but just putting enough texture on the surface to spoil the perfect conditions. Early morning minus tides could hurt the shape for the early riser but things should improve as the tide fills in around mid-morning. The water temps for the South Bay are in the mid to high 60's and with this push from the South should continue with this warming trend.
Saturday, although the South swell will take a slight dip in size, will still produce plenty of chest to head high waves with a few bigger sets at the top breaks. We're also anticipating some short period wind swell to jump into the mix. Best combo breaks will see some nice, peaky waves, but the true South facing beaches will probably be a bit cleaner
Bingo.
