Good morning, this is Bates with your Ocean Surf Shop surf report and forecast for Monday, January 27 at 8:30 a.m.    

Looks like they are doing some paving in The Washout area, so expect delays if you head up that way.

Surf at Folly this is knee-high and pretty weak.  

Winds are west at 5-10 knots, and surf zone is clean, but waves are weak.

Winds continue west at 10 knots throughout the rest of the day.  

High tide will be at 9:28 a.m., and low tide will be at 3:34 p.m. The next high tide is at 9:33 p.m.

The Edisto Buoy is reading 2 feet at 10 seconds in an east swell pushing against a west/south-west wind swell 2.3 feet at 5 seconds.

Surf is looking small through Wednesday as high pressure sets up over our marine area. After a storm system passage on Wednesday, we see high angled north-east wind swell fill in again, with choppy conditions and current running north-to-south, down the beach. Size should increase some, but don’t look for great wave quality Thursday and Friday. Surf could pick up some on Sunday ahead of another approaching cold front, as winds and swell come from a more southerly direction.  

Your NOAA Marine Weather Forecast for our marine area calls for: “High pressure will return this afternoon and prevail into Tuesday. A storm system is forecasted to cross through the area on Wednesday, followed by another storm system Friday into Saturday.”

It’s 47* this morning with showers. Look for a high of 60* with rain ending and clouds this afternoon.  

Water temperature has dropped back down to 54*. You’ll need at least a 4/3, and booties.

Sunrise is at 7:17 a.m. and sunset will be at 5:47 p.m.

Thanks for checking in with Ocean Surf Shop.
