Good morning surfers, this is your Northern and Central California surf zone forecast for Sunday, May third through Monday, May fourth, twenty twenty-six.
A Beach Hazards Statement remains in effect through eleven PM this evening, so please check with your local authorities on potential beach closures before heading out.
Let's start up north in Sonoma and Marin County, where we're looking at six to nine foot surf today under mostly cloudy skies. Temperatures will reach the low to mid fifties and sixties with light southwest winds around five miles per hour. The water temps aren't available in our data, but conditions look manageable overall. Monday brings similar six to nine foot waves with mostly cloudy skies and a slight chance of something in the forecast, though thunderstorms aren't expected. Highs will be in the low fifties to mid sixties.
Moving down the coast to San Francisco and San Mateo County, today's forecast calls for five to eight foot waves and mostly cloudy conditions. Water temperatures are running fifty-four to fifty-five degrees, which is pretty chilly. Winds start light out of the west around five miles per hour, increasing to eight by afternoon. High temperatures will range from fifty-three to sixty-six. Monday sees the swell picking up to six to nine feet with mostly cloudy skies and lighter southwest winds. Water will still be in that same fifty-four to fifty-five degree range.
Down in Santa Cruz County, you're looking at five to eight foot surf today with mostly cloudy skies and slightly warmer water temps in the fifty-six to fifty-seven degree range. North winds will start light at four miles per hour before increasing to eight. Expect highs in the mid-fifties to mid-sixties. Monday brings some directional splitting in the swell, with northwest-facing beaches picking up six to nine foot waves while south-facing beaches will see just three to six footers. Partly cloudy skies and southwest winds increasing from three to eight miles per hour.
Finally, in Monterey Bay and Big Sur, today is the smallest swell zone in our forecast with three to five foot waves, partly cloudy skies, and the warmest water temps of the bunch at fifty-eight to fifty-nine degrees. Winds pick up a bit here, starting at four miles per hour and reaching ten by afternoon, with highs in the upper fifties to mid-sixties. Monday follows a similar pattern with directional swell differences, northwest-facing breaks seeing five to eight feet while south-facing beaches offer two to four footers. Partly cloudy skies continue with southwest winds increasing from four to nine miles per hour.
Overall, it's a solid weekend for Northern California surfing with consistent swell and light winds. Water temps are cool but manageable, and no thunderstorms are expected anywhere in the forecast area. Remember that Beach Hazards Statement through tonight, and have fun out there.
