South New Jersey Forecast
Tim Kent •Today
Short-period E swell offers peaky but somewhat weak surf with onshore winds. Not bad for July
Dawn to Midday: Surf is up a couple notches as low pressure sets up offshore of the region. Fun-size waves into the chest+ high range, a bit bigger for standouts. Gentle-moderate sideshore NE winds and bumpy drifty conditions for most. Nothing ideal but for the time of year, I would try to get some waves at one of the more wind protected breaks. Warm water.
Afternoon Outlook: Continued onshore winds and less than ideal conditions, but some decently fun sized chunky peaks continue to show.
