Good morning this is Bates with your Ocean Surf Shop surf report and forecast for Tuesday, November 21 at 9 a.m.

We will close the shop at 2 p.m. on Wednesday the 22rd of November and we will be closed on Thanksgiving. We wish you all a happy Turkey Day!

Surf at Folly Is waist to chest high in a choppy south wind swell.

Winds are blowing from the south/south-east at 15  knots with a higher gust. Surf is choppy and disorganized, but there is some surf.

We are coming off a low tide at approximately 8 a.m. and we will have a high tide at 2:30 p.m. The next low tide will be at 8:41 p.m.

The Edisto Buoy is reading 7 feet at 5 seconds in a short period south/south east wind swell. So these is plenty of short period swell at the buoy, and there should be waves all day.

 We have a warm front lifting north today, and with it, we have a fresh south wind swell. There should be surf all day of the choppy variety. After this frontal passage, we see high pressure set up and keep surf small until the end of the week. We’ll see north-east winds pick up behind the front, and drifty north-east wind sell will be on offer for the weekend.

Your NOAA Marine Weather Forecast calls for: “. A warm front will lift north through the region tonight into Tuesday. A cold front will then cross the area late Tuesday night into Wednesday, followed by high pressure through Thanksgiving. An area of low pressure could impact the region late week into the weekend.”

Water temperature is 63*. Bring your wetsuit.

It’s 70** cloudy and windy. We see clouds today and the temperature should stay about the same today, and expect a chance of showers.   

Sunrise is at 6:52 a.m. Sunset is right at 5:17 p.m.

Good morning this is Luke with your Ocean Surf Shop surf report and forecast for Monday, Nov 20th at 8:00 a.m.

Surf at Folly Is knee to maybe thigh high, wind is still on it out of the NE so its still a bit choppy and drifty and not looking to great.

Winds moderate 10-20mph out of the NE making for drifty choppy conditions.

We just came off a Low tide before report time. High tide fills in 12:53

The Edisto Buoy is reading 4.3ft @10 seconds in E swell.  

Surf again not looking to hot this Monday morning, We are expecting a front to move into our area and clock our winds around out of the south generating some localized south wind-swell for later Tuesday into Wednesday with a slight cleanup mid weds when winds are forecasted to swing offshore. This swell will taper off Wednesday afternoon.  Surf stays down on Thursday. Then dare I say we may have another Low moving out of the Northern Gulf on Friday into Saturday. Models have changed slightly a bit since yesterday still tons of moisture looking to exit the Gulf its something to watch for sure.  

Your NOAA Marine Weather Forecast calls for: “High pressure will remain across the region early this week. A low pressure system and associated cold front will cross the area Tuesday night into Wednesday. High pressure should return Wednesday night into Thanksgiving. During the late week, a weak area of low pressure is expected to track across the region.”

Water temperature is starting to drop, it’s around 65*.

It’s 61* cloudy and windy. Look for a high of 69*, lots of sunshine today great fall beach weather.  

Sunrise is at 6:52 a.m. Sunset is right at 5:17 p.m.

Coming to you from a Secret Spot on Folly. Surf is pretty fun this morning around waist-chest high with bigger sets. And it’s clean, which is nice. Don’t get too greedy out there and share some waves with your buddies.

We will begin to see a rapid building trend in fresh southerly wind-swell late Monday into Tuesday. Plenty of surf on tap watch the flags and keep an eye our for those moments of glory.
