Strong pulse of NZ Southwest Swell peaks today - right now long period buoy readings showing 2.8 to 3ft @17-19 seconds from 200-210. Solid summer swell for much of our Coast with some shadowing from various offshore islands in So Cal - less a factor from SC north. As mentioned, swell peaks today and gradual fade into the end of the week. A steeper south swell will build in Saturday - peaking around 2@19 from 187 degrees. Northwest winds will gradually rebuild during the week, although we've had a break of late - especially north of SF - with south winds, fog, "warmer" water temps around 52-53, but as soon as those winds kick up temps will drop for everyone again. First hurricane of the season is down off Baja - but won't be a swell maker for CA. Plenty of waves the next couple days - go surf & cya in the water!
