Monday Wave Check

Micro-energy along this stretch of sand.

Waking up with the waves on Monday, I'm Surf Junkie Jeff with your Los Alamitos-Seal Beach Patch surf report.  Well, it's looking pretty disappointing out there this morning.  Yep, we're seeing more minimal size surf in this neck of the woods, so I suggest doing a little driving down toward Huntington where there are some playful size waves.

Those conditions are starting off nice and clean, with a very minor combination of energy out there.  We've got a little leftover northwest windswell and some minor south southwest energy in the water.

That recipe is offering this stretch of sand some pretty weak little lines, with a few loggable ones.  Most Seal Beach spots are running about ankle to knee high, with the top combo breaks seeing the occasional thigh-high set.

Taking a look at the the tides...at 9:59 this morning, it pushes up to a 3.8 high and then drops to a 1.6 low at 3:04 this afternoon.  If you're going to get out there and go for a paddle...well, that water temperature has taken another dip, so you might want to throw on that 4/3 fullsuit and maybe the booties, with it averaging between 56 and 58 degrees.  Good luck out there!
