Minimal Energy Creating Small Waves

Waking up with the waves on Wednesday, I'm Surf Junkie Jeff with your Manhattan Beach Patch surf report. Well, it's about time for a jumpstart! Yep, there's not a whole lot happening along this stretch of sand.

The conditions are mostly clean early on, with a pretty small combination of energy in the water. We're seeing some fading south southwest swell and minimal northwest wind and groundswell.

That's offering some pretty gutless lines, with maybe a few decent ones on a log or maybe a fish. Most of Manhattan Beach is hanging in the knee high range, with the standout breaks pulling some thigh to waist high waves.

Taking a look at the tides thanks to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association, at 5:39 this morning, it drained out to a 0.0 low, which will have many spots needing water early to mid-morning. The tide then pushes back up to a 3.4 high at 11:54 later this morning and then drops again to a 1.8 low at 4:49 this afternoon.

If you're going to get wet, you can most likely pull-off wearing a 3/2 fullsuit with the water temperature averaging between 57 and 59 degrees. See ya in the water!
