Surf's up, wave riders! Get ready for a wild ride along the Pacific Northwest coast. Today's looking like a beast with massive swells reaching 15 to 20 feet - definitely not for the faint of heart. We're talking west swells rolling in at a powerful 16 feet and 13 seconds, enough to make even seasoned surfers think twice.
Expect mostly cloudy skies with a chance of rain, so grab your waterproof gear. Temperatures will hover around a crisp 55 degrees with southwest winds blowing at a modest 5 to 8 miles per hour. Those tides are going to be dramatic today, swinging from a high of 10.9 feet down to a negative 2.1 feet - talk about ocean mood swings!
As we roll into Saturday, things calm down a bit. Surf heights will drop to a more manageable 8 to 12 feet with west swells at 9 feet and 12 seconds. The weather clears up to partly cloudy with temperatures climbing to around 60 degrees and gentle east winds.
But listen up, beach lovers - this isn't just about catching waves. The Oregon and Washington coast is playing for keeps. Cold water, sneaker waves, and rip currents are serious business. These aren't your average waves - they can surprise and overwhelm in seconds. A sneaker wave can surge way further up the beach than you'd expect, catching you completely off guard.
Pro tip: Stay alert, keep your distance from the water's edge, and never turn your back on the ocean. These waves are beautiful but unforgiving. Whether you're a hardcore surfer or just enjoying a beach walk, respect the power of the Pacific.
Sunrise is around 7:06 AM, sunset at 4:52 PM. Stay safe, stay smart, and ride those waves responsibly!
