Orange County Surf Forecast – creeping up

The Swell
Look for a mix of small inconsistent SW swell (200-220) and building NW-WNW energy that fills in slowly as we move throughout the day.



Waves
Still not the greatest swell mix for Orange County but it will increase our surf a little bit. Average spots can expect knee-waist high waves, while the standout SW facing spots as well as the standout NW facing spots, see some inconsistent waist-chest high sets. High tide will keep things soft through the first part of the day, but there may be a little more wiggle-room for the dawn patrol as the tide peak moves back to about 10:30am.

Winds
Winds will be mostly light/variable in the morning with a few pockets of light onshore texture at the wind prone spots. NW winds around 10-15 knots will build in through the afternoon.

Orange County Tides
03:59AM LST 2.7 L
10:21AM LST 6.0 H
06:16PM LST -0.4 L
