South San Diego Forecast

Today

Knee-waist high waves stick around. Chest-high for best spots. Wait out the early low tide.

Dawn-10am: The lead into the holiday weekend gets a fresh round of longer period SSW swell -- a little bit of NW windswell in the mix to keep the lights on at the beachbreaks -- not expecting peaks but maybe some open corners here and there. A little onshore crumble during the best tide window, but worth avoiding the negative low first thing.

PM Outlook: A little more SSW swell arrives, standouts see some head-high waves. Moderate onshore lump into the late PM window. Evening mellows some.

Not all south swells are created equal. From Bombing Teahupo'o to Massive Wedge, watch the science behind the South Pacific's most remarkable run in decades: https://bit.ly/4xS68hZ
