North Orange County Forecast
Kevin Wallis •Today
Solid day of waves, some SW wind crumble for the morning. Afternoon bump manageable.
SW swell tops out for chest-shoulder high waves at average spots. Better breaks from the HB Pier south see head-high to a bit overhead surf and standouts go a couple of feet overhead. Just enough NW swell mix for the odd corner, but pretty lined up at open beachbreaks overall.
Light S-SW wind early will pick up some through the morning but never looks like a deal breaker. Light bump through the afternoon and I'd keep an eye on the evening window with onshore winds mellowing out.
