Friday Wave Check

Deteriorating conditions!

Waking up with the waves on Friday, I'm Surf Junkie Jeff with your Laguna Beach Patch surf report.  Well, it's a good day to make the boss happy and get to work on time.  Yep, it's still super small, with some worsening conditions.

Most spots are already seeing some texture or bump on the water.  We've got a mixed bag of energy made up of some very minimal west northwest and west southwest windswells and some minor south southwesterly energy in the water.

That recipe is providing some crumbly and textured little lines, with not much to work with.  Most Laguna Beach spots are seeing ankle high waves, with not much more than that.

At 10:41 later this morning the tide drops to a 0.2 low which will have many spots pretty drained out mid to late morning.  The tide then climbs back up to a 3.1 high at 5:48 this evening.

If you're planning on paddling before the latest storm, break out at least the 3/2 fullsuit or a 4/3 and maybe the booties, with the water temperature averaging between 56 and 57 degrees.  Good luck out there!!
