South Los Angeles Forecast
Matt Kibby •Today
Surf picking up as mix of reinforcing S swell and new SW swell roll in. Lumpy PM conditions.
Afternoon Outlook: S swell mixes with building SW swell, setting up waist-chest high waves, while better breaks from Manhattan northward go head-high. The mix of swells helps section out the open beachbreaks there too. Not totally peaky, but not straight walled either.
More SW swell showing, standouts Manhattan-Venice push overhead+ later PM. Lumpy afternoon conditions with moderate SW winds.
