Saturday, July 15
Sid-shore, clean in the morning. It's gonna' chop up and get drifty this afternoon.
Good morning this is Bates with your Ocean Surf Shop surf report and forecast for Saturday, July 15 at 8:30 a.m.
Coming to you from the Washout, waves are knee-to-thigh high. There is a waist high set, and it looks kind of fun for the high volume board.
Winds are south-west at 10 to 15 knots, and surf zone has a little side shore chop on it and a slight drift up the beach.
Winds will increase out of the south-west today, adding side-shore chop/drift to the surf zone as a small south-west, short-period wind swell begins to increase late afternoon as the tide comes in.
Low tide will be at 12:40 p.m., and high tide will be at 7:14 p.m.
The Edisto Buoy is reading 3 feet at 9 seconds in a medium period east/south-east wind swell, with a short-period south-west wind swell 2 feet at 4 seconds. Look for the short period south-west wind swell to increase this afternoon.
Coming off the low tide may be a little something to surf eastly afternoon, but the wind is likely to get on it. There is a chance for small, choppy south-west wind swell to begin to build up this afternoon into Sunday, but it’ll be kind of typical summer wind swell with side-shore conditions. We have a new development in Subtropical Storm Don. It’s pretty far out there in the middle of the ocean and will be hanging out for a while as it loops around. We could see a small, home-grown low-pressure system develop off the south-eastern coast MAYBE next week, with moderate to strong south-west winds still prevailing. This could push up a little choppy swell for next week.
Your NOAA Marine Weather Forecast calls for: “A surface trough will persist inland this weekend, while High pressure prevails in the Atlantic through next week.”
Water temperature is around 85*
It’s hotter than two rats making love in a wool sock. It’s 84* with clouds this morning. It is very humid. Expect sunny and hot weather all day with a high of 88*.
Sunrise is at 6:22 a.m., and sunset will be at 8:28 p.m.
