Hey there, surfers and beachgoers! Ready for your dose of surf zone forecast fun? Let's dive in and ride those waves!
Starting off in Orange County Coastal Areas today, we've got a heads-up – there's a high rip current risk! So, keep your surf skills sharp. The surf height ranges from 3 to 5 feet, making it perfect for catching some rad waves. And hey, thunderstorm potential? None! So, no need to worry about that. The water temperature is a comfortable 64 to 68 degrees, just right for a refreshing dip. Watch those tides at Newport Beach, and be on the lookout for mixed south swell and west swell – it's a mix and match kind of day!
Moving on to Saturday, the rip current risk drops to moderate, giving you a chance to catch some waves at 1 to 3 feet, with occasional 4-foot sets. No thunderstorms in sight, just perfect surfing weather. Tides at Newport Beach will be in your favor, so plan your surfing session accordingly. Keep an eye out for that mixed swell from the south and west.
Now, let's zoom down to San Diego County Coastal Areas. Similar to Orange County, there's a high rip current risk today. The surf height is a chill 2 to 4 feet, with occasional 5-foot sets – perfect for some wave-riding action. The water temperature here ranges from 68 to 71 degrees, so get ready for a refreshing surf session. La Jolla's tides are on point, and keep an eye out for the mixed swell from south-southwest and west directions.
Looking ahead to Saturday, the rip current risk remains moderate. The surf height will be similar to today, giving you a chance to enjoy some moderate wave action. The tides at La Jolla are in your favor, and the swell is coming in from the west and south-southwest – mix it up and catch those waves!
Remember, for both areas, higher rip current risks mean life-threatening currents are more likely, so stay safe in the water.
So, surfers, gear up, wax those boards, and hit the waves with confidence. Get ready for a fantastic day filled with sun, surf, and good vibes!
