Our surf will start off still in the playful sizes thanks to a mix of W-NW energy still holding on from the weekend as well as a little reinforcing NW pulse that has pushed into the background. Most spots will see surf in the waist-chest high range tomorrow with some shoulder-head high+ sets showing at the top NW breaks through North County. Look for cleanest conditions early in the day and increasing WNW-NW winds on tap for the afternoon. Points and reefs will have the best shape…if we had any real ones in North County (maybe I should crash a big cargo ship into state beach)…but good sandbars and the various structures that can break up a swell will be ok fallback places to check.
Light and variable winds early in the morning but with building W-NW winds 10-20+ knots on tap by the afternoon as the next storm front moves through. Look for more rain through the end of the day as well.
Here are the tides…

Orange County Surf Forecast - for Wednesday - 2/3/2010
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.
WNW-NW swell will fill in and peak on Wednesday while the leftover SSW swell drops off…most spots will be in the knee-waist high range with a few chest high sets sneaking in on the lower tides. The top NW facing breaks, mostly through North County, will have chest-head high sets with a few bigger waves sneaking through on the lower tides.
Winds will be light NW-NNW for the morning…mostly below 5-8 knots. WNW winds build up to the 10-15 knot range for the afternoon. Cloudy skies and a little drizzle are on tap for most of the day.

Orange County Surf Forecast – Friday – Building windswell lumps
The Swell
New WNW-NW windswell and some minor SW swell (200-220) will filter through the exposed spots on Friday. Look for increase in size as the tide drops and the windswell increases later in the day.
Waves
Not much surf on tap for the morning thanks to a nearly 6’ high tide that peaks during the dawn patrol…expect a few weak, basically shorebreak, lines to sneak through early…but without much in the way of rideable shape. Look for the mix of windswell and SW energy to build surf in the knee-waist high range at the average spots as the tide drops. Standout breaks may see some bigger sets but will likely blow out before many slip through.
Winds
Mostly light and variable onshore winds and a bunch of areas with minor texture for the morning. Look for some moderate W-WNW winds in the 10-15+ knot range for the afternoon.
