Santa Cruz Forecast
Chris Borg •Today
Another good run of Southern Hemi fills into well exposed spots today. Favorable winds.
Afternoon Outlook: Long-period, selective S swell fills in, as old SSW swell eases, little NW swell lingers. Good southerly exposures are chest to shoulder high+ zone, while focal points hit head high+ at lunchtime. Look for a rise in size back half of the day as more swell shows. Light S winds mid day, go low-end moderate NNW offshore later afternoon. Tide sensitive breaks are slowed some by the later afternoon high tide.
