Chris Borg •Today
Some fun waves for the smaller wave gear today in between old/new SSW swells. AM window best.
Dawn to 10:00AM: The most consistent surf is down a bit from yesterday as old SSW swell mixes with the long period front end of our next SSW pulse. Knee-thigh high waves go waist-stomach high for the better exposures north of Hermosa. Winds are light/variable to light S. Decent tide push setting up mid-AM with just a little onshore crumble.
Afternoon Outlook: Surf edges up at exposures as more SSW swell shows. Low-end moderate SW onshores for more afternoon lump.
