Good Morning. This is Chad with your Ocean Surf Shop surf report for Monday, Aug. 7 at 8:30 a.m.
Waves at The Washout are knee to thigh high with occ. bigger sets.
It is pretty choppy and blown out.
Winds are SSW at 15-20 knots. We expect SSW winds at 15-20 this afternoon as well, and surf should be side-shore and choppy later today with surf averaging thigh to waist high
We are coming off an 8:15AM high tide this morning, and low tide will be at 2:17 p.m. The next high tide will be at 8:45 p.m.
Edisto Buoy is reading 3.3 ft. at 9 seconds in medium period south swell.
Super choppy and disorganized waves out there this morning and the surf should drop out some late morning with the low tide. Look for surf to pick back up a little with choppy conditions this afternoon as the tide comes in. There are a few systems to keep an eye on in the tropical Atlantic, perhaps sending us some waves late next week.
Your NOAA Marine Weather Forecast for our marine area calls for: “Atlantic high pressure will persist through much of next week. A front will drop into the Carolinas on Tuesday and linger until Thursday or Friday before lifting back north.”
It is 83* with sun this morning. Expect sun and some clouds today with a high of 86* and a 20% chance of rain.
Sunset is at 8:12 p.m. and sunrise will be at 6:37 a.m.
Thanks for checking in with Ocean Surf Shop.

Good Morning. This is Bates with your Ocean Surf Shop surf report for Sunday, Aug. 6 at 8:30 a.m.
Waves at The Washout are knee to thigh high with occ. waist high sets.
It is semi-clean, and looks fun for the longboard or fish.
Winds are south-west at 5-10 knots. We expect west/south-westerly winds at 15 this afternoon, and surf should side-shore and choppy later today with surf averaging thigh to waist high.
We are coming off a high tide this morning, and low tide will be at 1:26 p.m. The next high tide will be at 8:05 p.m.

There’s a small longboard or fish wave out there this morning. Surf should drop out early afternoon with the low tide. Look for surf to pick back up in choppy conditions this afternoon as the tide comes in. South wind swell should build overnight into the waist high range for the high tide Monday morning. This south swell should fade mid-week. There are a few tropical systems to keep an eye on in the Atlantic – Including Invest 99L moving west north-west – perhaps sending us some waves late next weekend.
Your NOAA Marine Weather Forecast for our marine area calls for: “Atlantic high pressure will persist through much of next week. A front will drop into the Carolinas on Tuesday and linger until Thursday or Friday before lifting back north.”

There’s a fun longboard or fish wave out this morning, but this should drop out early afternoon with the low tide, look for surf to pick back up in choppy conditions this afternoon as the tide comes in. We see increasing WSW wind swell keeping surf in the thigh to waist high range tonight and into your Sunday morning with light west winds in the AM. South-west wind swell continues, but fades some on Sunday. There are a few tropical systems to keep an eye on in the Atlantic, perhaps sending us some waves late next week.

Good Morning. This is Bates with your Ocean Surf Shop surf report and forecast for Tuesday, Aug. 1 at 8:30 a.m.
Waves at The Washout are thigh to waist high. There should be a bigger set late morning as the tide rolls in.
It is closing out some at the morning’s low tide, but should get better form as the tide rolls in late morning.
Winds are north/north-east at 10 knots, and surf is semi-clean with some side-shore drift down the beach.
We expect north-east winds today at 10 knots with higher gusts and semi-choppy surf all day.
Low tide is at 9:33 a.m., and high tide will be at 4:14 p.m.

We see swell from Tropical Depression Emily mix with east/north-east wind swell today and Wednesday, fading some by Wednesday afternoon. Swell fades for late in the work week, then we see choppy south-west wind swell return for the weekend.
Your NOAA Marine Weather Forecast for our marine area calls for: “Dry high pressure will prevail through tonight while Tropical Depression Emily passes well offshore. A stationary front to the south will lift northward Thursday, then dissipate by Friday. A cold front will then approach on Saturday, becoming stationary over the region through early next week. Refer to the latest advisory on Emily issued by the National Hurricane Center.”
It is 72* and absolutely beautiful at the beach. Look for sun with passing clouds and a high of 85*.
Water temp is around 83*.
Sunset is at 8:18 p.m. and sunrise will be at 6:33 a.m.

Tropical storm Emily formed in the Gulf of Mexico overnight, and should cross Central Florida moving north-east into the Atlantic off-shore of our waters. Not much time for it to create a swell train, but it should enhance this east/north-east swell through mid-week. Go surf!
