Friday, January 29

Weak, semi-choppy. Drifty.

Time of Report: 8:30 a.m.
Wave Forecast: Knee-high.
Traffic: Not too much.
Parking: Plenty.
Dangers: None.

Good morning, this is Bates with your Ocean Surf Shop surf report and forecast for Friday, January 29 at 8:30 a.m.   

Surf at Folly is knee high.        

Winds are north/north-east at 10 to 15 knots, and surf zone is side-shore, semi-choppy and drifty down the beach.

Look for north winds this morning at 15 to 20, diminishing to 10 knots late day. Surf stays side-shore and drifty today.  

We just came off a high tide. Low tide at 2:19 p.m., and a high tide will be at 8:23 p.m.

The virtual buoy is reading 3.8 ft. at 5 seconds in a short-period, north-east wind swell. Most of this is passing by our beaches.

A low-pressure system moves east of the mid-Atlantic states today and into the weekend. This should push up a significant north-easterly ground swell, but most of the swell will pass by Folly today and Saturday. Points south in Florida that like north-east swell should pick up significantly late week and into Saturday. We see building, choppy south wind-swell on Sunday ahead of another cold front, cleaning up and fading into Monday afternoon as high pressure builds in to start your work week. Monday could have some fun, cold, clean waves as winds go off-shore.

Your NOAA Marine Weather Forecast calls for: “High pressure will prevail through Saturday. A storm system will bring impacts to our area on Sunday. High pressure returns by the middle of next week.”

It is cold this morning, with temperatures around 35* at the beach. There is lots of sun, and we see a high of only 46* today.  

Water temperature is 54*.

Sunrise is at 7:16 a.m. and sunset will be at 5:49 p.m.
