SURF REPORT: A Fun Window This Thursday

Surfers will see a few playful waves to be had.

Good Thursday morning surfers, I'm Surf Junkie Jeff with your San Clemente Patch surf report.

Well, we're not seeing much size, but the mix of energy could provide a fun window at some point during the day. Overall, it's mostly small, with a few playful waves to be had.

The conditions are starting off pretty clean, with a combination of south southwest swell and a little northwest windswell in the background.

That recipe is giving this stretch of sand some kinda soft, sectiony lines, with some fast shoulders to be had once that tide drains out a bit. Most spots in San Clemente are pulling knee- to waist-high plus waves, with the top combo breaks seeing a few stomach-high plus sets. 

At 5:27 early this morning the tide climbed up to a 4.0 high which could have some spots a little slow early on. The tide then drops to a 0.5 low at 11:45 later this morning and then pushes up again to a 5.1 high at 6:25 this evening.

If you're planning on paddling, you'll want to wear no more than a 3/2 full, with the water temperature hanging between 58 and 60 degrees.

See ya in the water!
