Orange County Surf Forecast - for Friday - 1/29/2010

Make sure to read the full region forecast it has more complete details on the incoming swell and regional conditions. Click here for the full forecast www.socalsurf.com.

We get pretty swamped by the tide in the morning…look for very mushy/shorebreaky shape for pretty much everywhere (of course with a couple of exceptions at the few breaks that like the extra water). Once the tide drops we can expect surf in the knee-waist high+ range for most breaks exposed to the fading WNW-NW energy and the small S-SSW pulse that is hanging in the background.

New WNW-NW swell (280-300) starts filling in later in the day…possibly helping to increase size and consistency a touch at the best NW facing breaks as we head toward the end of the day. I am not expecting a ton of new surf before the sun sets, but it will be worth at least giving the top spots some sort of check if the winds seem light.

Light and variable to light offshore winds for the morning. WNW-NW winds around 10-15 knots expected for the afternoon…possibly lightening up around sundown.

Here are the tides…
