South New Jersey Forecast
Tim Kent •Today
Rebuilding S windswell with onshore southerly winds and textured conditions.
Dawn to Midday:Â Still some rideable sized surf for the logs around knee-thigh high early this morning. S winds and textured/jumbly conditions. You will need a big board, and pretty low expectations. The water likely cools down today.
Afternoon Outlook:Â Stronger southerly winds add increasing afternoon chop and a bit more size late day.
