Surf's up, wave riders! This is your Wednesday morning coastal condition check for Southern California.
Buckle up because we're looking at some serious swell action hitting Orange County and San Diego coastlines. A High Surf Advisory is in effect through Saturday morning with wave heights that'll get your adrenaline pumping.
In Orange County, expect waves ranging from 5 to 7 feet, with some sets pushing an impressive 8 feet. San Diego's not far behind, with 4 to 6 foot waves and potential 7 foot sets. These aren't your typical mellow rollers - we're talking serious ocean energy.
The swell mix is interesting today - a combination of south swells around 180 to 200 degrees with some western influences from 260 to 270 degrees. Water temperatures are holding steady between 60 and 63 degrees - chilly but totally manageable with the right wetsuit.
Here's the critical warning: Rip current risk is HIGH. Translation for surfers and ocean enthusiasts - these waters are not for the faint of heart. Life-threatening currents are likely, so respect the ocean and know your limits.
Quick tide highlights for the surf-savvy: Newport Beach and La Jolla will see multiple tide changes today, with lows dipping to near zero and highs reaching around 5.1 feet.
Thunderstorm potential? Just a slight chance today, adding a bit of extra unpredictability to the mix.
Bottom line: Challenging conditions await. Stay alert, stay safe, and may your rides be epic and your wipeouts be minimal. Surf's on!
