Weekend surf forecast looks good!



From WetSand.com:
Saturday the 7th should see NW swell fill in more, increasing size in SoCal as the energy traverses from the north to the south. According to this morning's model run, this swell should start filling in around SB/VC early to mid morning, but not hit SD until possibly the late afternoon. When it does fill in, west facing breaks would be looking at consistent head high sets with some sets running 2-3 feet overhead. The overhead pluses though are likely to be infrequent on Saturday until possibly the afternoon or early evening. Winds are expected to be from theNNE early in the morning, possibly 8-12 mph from LA north (calmer in OC and SD), calming mid day, and then turning moderately onshore in the afternoon. Tide will still be an issue, nearing the 6-foot mark around 11:40 AM.

Sunday the 8th the NW swell should make full impact in SoCal. This is expected to place most west facing breaks in surf running 2-3 feet overhead, and with standouts goingDOH . Swell is likely to be consistent, with even the smallest waves in the sets running at least head high. Winds are expected to be from theNNE early in the AM, and may become a bit strong around VC and SB (to perhaps 15 mph max at times), but most areas should see NNE winds 10 mph or less in the AM.

Monday the 9th should still see some waves out of this NW'er, but with the swell backing down, size around west facing breaks is expected to max out around head high.

North County says: "YAHOO!!!"
