UPDATED FORECAST OCT 10TH

The week ahead stays on the small side with a few notables:

South swell will continue most of the week at 2-3ft at 17-18 seconds.  Fading Thursday.  

Northwest swell continues on the smaller side - look for an uptick Tuesday at 7-9 ft @9 sec, Wednesday 5-7ft @10 seconds - fading some into the weekend.   Bigger north, smaller Bay Area south.  

Winds are going to crank up today/tonight over the outer northern waters and southern outer waters - so look for some bump and janky conditions at breaks open to the wind/waves.  Wind should fade some into mid week, but then look to ratchet back up again by the weekend.   Nearshore winds might be lighter or trend offshore some mornings - since we do have a dry weather system heading into the Great Basin to give us some offshore flow - but it will be light.  Fire danger remains low, coast should still see fog and drizzle.   No change in the weather pattern or surf pattern until mid to later October when models are hinting at a pattern shift - hopefully this blocking high pressure will vacate the region.   We should start seeing some bigger fall waves later in October either way.   

Cya in the water.
