Friday, July 30
Choppy, drifty.
Good morning, this is Bates with your Ocean Surf Shop surf report and forecast for Friday, July 30 at 8:30 a.m.
Come check out the Folly Beach Wahine Classic on Saturday at the Contest Shack at the Washout on Saturday. That’s tomorrow. Come help support women’s surfing right here in the Lowcountry!
Surf at the Washout this morning is knee-high.
Winds are west/south-west – side-shore – and surf is small, weak and choppy at the low tide.
Look for south-westerly winds increasing this afternoon at 15 to 20, with a higher gust, late. Surf gets choppy as the day wears on and could build some in a choppy, drifty, short-period south-west wind wave.
We are coming off a low tide, high tide will be at 1:36 p.m. The next low tide will be at 7:46 p.m.
The Edisto buoy is reading 2.6 ft at 4 seconds in a building south-west wind swell.
Waves should be picking up some late day in a small, choppy south-west wind swell. South-west winds will be prevalent this weekend and into early next work week. We see small, choppy, south-west wind waves in the forecast. This looks to begin to build over-night Saturday into Sunday. This small south-west wind swell carries into the work week, with waves averaging thigh high with a bigger set in drifty conditions as a cold front stalls near our marine area.
Your National Weather Service Marine Weather Forecast for our area calls for: “High pressure will extend across the region today. A cold front will stall over or just north of the area Saturday through the middle of next week.”
We have sun and clouds mixed this morning. It’s 82*. Look for a very hot, humid day with a high of 87* and sunny skies today. There is an excessive heat warning in effect.
Water temperature is around 84*.
Sunrise is at 6:32 a.m. and sunset will be at 8:19 p.m.
