North San Diego Forecast

Today

Evening window the one to watch today as conditions clean up & surf pulses a bit far north county.

Afternoon Outlook: SSE Swell from Elida creeps up with less NW windswell and overall less peaky than yesterday. Mostly thigh-waist high surf off the swell mix, up to chest high at standout S spots. Evening window getting cleaner as onshore ease, and with more Elida swell moving in for a little more surf in the waist-chest+ range at best spots.
