Early season storm door is open as the remnants of Typhoon Merbok about to make its presence known along the West Coast with rain, wind, mountain snow and swell. Weather wise - rain will start far north overnight and spread throughout the Bay Area Sunday. Heaviest rain will be in the north bay, probably 1-3 inches depending on location - lighter amounts further south you go but still pretty decent for a September rain event. Winds will switch to south overnight and be quite strong Sunday into Monday - then lighter winds Tuesday/Wednesday. We have two small souths in the water - one fading out today and another set to rise overnight - probably maxing out at 2ft 17-18 seconds. Monday swell from the remnants of Typhoon Merbok start to show at 2-3 ft at 20 seconds from 308 deg. Swell will be 3ft at 18 seconds Tuesday into Wednesday. We will see a bump of northwest wind swell at the same time, shorter periods - 9-10 seconds - overall good northwest breaks will probably see waves head high and better at times - smaller the further south you go. **Note, the typhoon swell was heavily shadowed by the Aleutians - so it will be quite lully at times. That combined with the northwest wind swell, sw swell might make for some interesting conditions at a lot of breaks. So, some exciting days ahead with the weather and waves! Cya in the water.
