Winter makes a return this week into next as a series of strong storms come ashore bringing rain, snow, wind and chaotic swell through the period. It will be hard to find some clean surf after tonight, even though there will be plenty of swell in the water from multiple swell trains due to impact CA into next week. Lingering West Swell continues today into Thursday at 7-8ft @13 seconds. On Thursday, new swell will jump up to 13@15 seconds and gradually fade into the weekend at 10@12. Swell direction this week around 293-298 degrees. Strong south winds mid week and again over the weekend, periods of lighter north to west wind in between the two major storms Wednesday and again on Friday/Saturday. Biggest surf north of SF - smallest Central/So Cal. Cya in the water.
