Surf's up, wave riders! The Pacific Northwest coastline is serving up some seriously moody maritime vibes this weekend. We're looking at a classic June marine layer scenario with mostly cloudy skies and gentle northwest winds dancing across Long Beach, Seaside, and the Oregon coast.
Wave enthusiasts can expect some playful 1 to 4 foot surf heights depending on your specific coastal zone. The offshore swells are a mixed bag - we've got northwest and southwest pulses ranging from 1 to 2 feet with periods between 11 to 14 seconds. Translation? Expect some interesting wave dynamics but nothing too wild.
Temperatures will hover around a crisp 55 to 60 degrees - definitely wetsuit weather. Wind will be blowing from the northwest at 6 to 13 miles per hour, adding a bit of texture to the ocean surface.
Tide hunters will want to mark their calendars. We're seeing some substantial tidal ranges from minus 1.3 feet to 8.7 feet throughout the day. Early morning and late afternoon are your prime tide windows.
But hey, coastal warriors - this isn't just about catching waves. The ocean demands respect. Cold water, sneaker waves, and rip currents are serious business. Those deceptive waves can catch even experienced surfers off guard. Stay alert, stay smart, and never turn your back on the Pacific.
Sunrise kicks off around 5:24 AM, with a lengthy daylight window closing out at 9:10 PM. Perfect for extended surf sessions and coastal exploration.
Catch you on the waves - stay stoked and stay safe!
