More W-WNW swell showing on Thursday…but again we will be a bit shadowed by the nearshore islands so our surf size will be a few notches below the other, more directly exposed regions.
Sizewise look for more surf in the shoulder-overhead range at the W-WNW facing spots. The top breaks, mostly through North County, will see sets going several feet overhead…and maybe bigger as the tide drops.
Wind will be ok/marginal in the morning…mostly light/variable but with some pockets of NW texture at the really exposed breaks. Look for these winds to increase to WNW 10-15 knots by the afternoon.
Light and variable to slightly offshore/sideshore winds set up clean conditions for the morning. The winds are set to improve by the end of the day…gradually shifting to the N or even NNE by the evening, so keep an eye on conditions…there is a chance for some clean-up around sunset. Hope you guys get a few…stay safe!
Here are the tides…

Orange County Surf Forecast - For Wednesday - 1/13/10

The new W-WNW swell will be filling in fast throughout OC on Wednesday…the peak rolling through later in the afternoon, but plenty of waves on tap all through the day. Orange County is a bit more shadowed from this swell compared to other areas so expect smaller sizes. Unfortunately even with the shadowing it looks like the beach breaks will settle into lined up closeouts…which in turn will limit the amount of surf-space to the points and reefs that can handle the swell.
Sizewise we can expect surf in the shoulder-overhead range for most W-WNW facing spots. The top breaks, mostly through North County, will see sets going several feet overhead…and maybe bigger as the tide drops. Winds and tide will be an issue…we are back to the usual race of waiting for the tide to drop and risking the increasing wind…you can help yourself out by sticking to spots that can handle a little more water
Light and variable to slightly offshore/sideshore winds set up clean conditions for the morning. Some scattered drizzle and WNW-NW winds around 10-15 knots move in through the afternoon.
