Today

Steady onshore WNW wind continues this afternoon. Onshore flow lightens late but is still moderate.

Afternoon Outlook: Breezy onshore flow and tattered conditions this afternoon. SW Southern Hemi holds, old SSW tropical swell fades, a little nudge in NW windswell joins in, and some SSE Fausto swell starts to sneak in. Widespread waves are chest-shoulder high, while best exposures go head high+. Onshore flow backs off some this evening but it'll still be moderate. Plan around the wind if you're trying to get a surf in this afternoon/evening.
