Matt Kibby •Today
Rippable southerly swell mix continues. There's texture but surf stays rideable this afternoon.
Afternoon Outlook: Steady onshore SW wind adding lump and bump across the region this afternoon. SSW-SW swell from Elida eases, but stays fun while some new Southern Hemi swell is filling in to help keep up surf heights. Many breaks in the waist-chest-head high range, as top spots still see some overhead sets. Shape is best for spots with structure but there's corners around the beachbreaks.
Onshore SW/WSW wind sticks around into the evening before eventually backing down late.
