UPDATED FORECAST 6-25

 Was back on the East Coast this past week so no report.   Back to it today.   Small South Pacific swells in the water through Thursday this week - about 2-2.5ft @14-15 seconds from 195.   Local northwest wind swell to continue through the week but on the smaller side as the wind machine as let up some over the outer waters.   South Pacific should continue to send up small pulses of swell through the period, but nothing major on the horizon.   July approaches, that's getting into winter in the Southern Hemisphere so we should begin to see some bigger and more consistent swells as the month goes by.   Until then, small surf, not so horrible winds.   Cya in the water.   

UPDATED FORECAST 6-16

 Not much hope in the short term - we do have a new longer period southwest swell building in the next couple days - impact of that will be best from Santa Cruz to So Cal - maybe deep water heights around 2-3ft @14-17 seconds.   Something to ride on a longer board.    North of SF - it's blown to shreds as the relentless northwest winds continue to plow down the Coast - especially strong from Cape Mendo to Pt Reyes - making sure that any south swell that does make it north gets obliterated before it reaches any of the nooks and crannies in the region.   After this small south which will peak around mid week - nothing else on the charts other than wind and locally generated south swell.   La Niña summer in full effect and not providing us with much to ride.  Summer Solstice coming up this week and then the count down will begin again towards Fall.  Cya in the water.  

UPDATED FORECAST 6-9, MORE N PAC SWELL

 New late season swell showing at the far northern buoys this morning - 7-8ft @14 from 295-300.  Swell will build all day and peak tomorrow.   This is from another storm system that followed the first storm last week.  Additionally, south swell in the water - still around 2-2.5ft@14-15sec from 210-215.   Northwest winds are blowing hard and gales are forecast for the next few days in the outer waters, some inner waters north of Jenner.  Water temps remain cold - upper 40s north of Bodega Bay, low 50s SF south.   The New Zealand storm corridor is active and we will see bouts of southwest swell from this area most of next week - nothing large - staying around 2ft @15-16 seconds with a 210-215 deg direction.  Northwest winds will howl all week so don't look for calm conditions anytime soon on the North Coast.   Large windswell will result most of the week.  The wind and swell will make a mess of these small souths coming up the Coast, and knock size down - especially once they move past Santa Cruz.   Cya in the water.  

UPDATED FORECAST 6-2, LATE SEASON STORM

 Abnormally strong atmospheric river type system hitting the Pacific NW today and will drag a cold front through the northwest part of CA tonight through Monday.  Rain line will be about as far south as the Sonoma Coast.   Maybe a few sprinkles in Marin.   Relentless northwest winds will ease tonight, but then ratchet back up on Tuesday.   Small south swells in the water, overlapping the next few days - deepwater swell around 2-3 ft from around 180-185.  We will see a big jump in swell heights Tuesday through Thursday, inbound swell from the storm that came through.  Biggest days are Wed/Thurs - 10-12ft @11-13 seconds.    Otherwise, seas will be on the rise from all the winds coming in Tuesday through Thursday which will pick up the northwest windswell again for mid week.  Not tracking any major south in the week ahead - just wind and large-ish windswell.   Water temps are quite cold - seasonally so - low 50s SF and Santa Cruz - 48-50 north of Bodega Bay.   Cya in the water.
