N Pacific swell machine has shut down for the season - but windswell will remain the primary source of any kind of waves for the foreseeable future with high pressure in control and the gradient between that and low pressure over the Central Valley/Southwest creating brisk winds out over the ocean and very cold water temps. Pt Arena showing water temp of 46.8 this am! Chilly. Southern Hemisphere is active and while there are no major south swells on the horizon we do have a long run of smaller south swell in the water now. Swell will hover around 2ft at 17 seconds from 190 - gradually fading out by Sunday. NW winds will blow quite hard for the next seven days and beyond - in fact probably just keep blowing until the fog bank sets up for summer or we get into September - ha. So - seek out your protected wind spots that like south swell, grab a floaty board and you can ride. Cya in the water.
