Occasional 5-footers are rolling through local breaks, but it’s a long time in between sets as a 20-second SW swell peaks today.
Some breaks it’s walled up and closing out, others are better lined up. There’s still a touch of windswell, but by far the dominant system is the SW groundswell.
Tide is still going out until 9:00 a.m., when it’ll be 0.4 feet.

It might get slightly choppy by early afternoon. Winds are expected to reach about 12 knots.

For tomorrow, Thursday, expect similar conditions, as the SW sticks around. More long-period, inconsistent, mostly walled-up surf at most breaks, but every now and then a clean 4-6 foot set wave that’ll make your session worth it.
