Orange County Surf Forecast - For Wednesday - 1/06/10

If you jumped straight into this page make sure to read the full Socal Forecast for more of a broad-scale look at our current swell/conditions, as well as the long-range forecasts.

The struggle to pull rideable waves out of our WNW swell mix and big tide swings will continue on Wednesday. Fortunately there will be a touch more swell and the tides are a little more manageable compared to what we say earlier this week. Most spots will be in the ankle-knee high range with some rare waist high sets. Standout North County NW breaks will be a bit more in the knee-waist high+ range with some inconsistent chest high+ sets. Expect fairly long waits between waves…and watch out for the midday high tide, even though it isn’t a full 6-footer it has still done a bang-up job steamrolling the shape.

Winds will be nice tomorrow…mostly light and variable in the morning with some pockets of offshore winds through the hills and canyons as you move into South County. Look for the winds to shift more WNW around 10-12 knots for the afternoon, but possibly laying down again in the evening.

Here are the tides…
