Welcome to the 2017/2018 season. You made it through another summer, a particularly lousy summer for surf around these parts. Extremely hot conditions exist today and will stick around over the weekend. As such, high pressure has crushed the marine layer leaving us with fairly light winds today and through the weekend. Perhaps an afternoon sea breeze each day. Not much swell to talk about - small windswell and a fading steep angle south swell which didn't make much noise the past few days. Look for a better angled sw swell (200-210) to move in around Sunday afternoon - maybe chest high sets at best by Monday/Tuesday. Our first swell from the N Pac looks to head in here around Sept 6-7 - as models forecasting a storm to develop in the next couple days. That swell, from around 300 will be good for head/overhead surf, possibly larger at times. Behind that, another swell is forecast for Sept 8-10. I'll be watching those lows develop this weekend and update late weekend or Monday. Good sign however, with some solid surf (finally) on the way. Cya in water.
***CA BUOY is adrift but still reporting. No idea when they will get it back to it's original position.
