Make sure to read the full region forecast...it will help this one make sense, (Not promising any miracles though). Click here for the full forecast www.socalsurf.com.
The W-WNW swell mix (275-300) holds into the weekend…dropping just a touch on Saturday but then starting to creep back up on Sunday. Conditions look pretty good for mornings on both days…but watch for building S-SSE winds to move in (along with some rain) by Sunday evening.
Average W facing spots will be in the chest-shoulder high range with some inconsistent head high waves sneaking through on the lower tides. The standout WNW-NW spots, again mostly through North County, will be in the shoulder-overhead range with some inconsistent sets going overhead+ at times. Best shape will continue to show at the points, reefs, and a few of the beaches that have some sort of structure to break up the swell.
Weatherwise look for light and variable winds through early Saturday and only marginal onshore flow for the afternoon. Sunday will start out with light/variable winds as well but S-SSE winds and increasingly cloudy skies will move in through the afternoon. Rain will be coming as well but it looks like heavy stuff will start after sundown.
Here are the tides…
