Friday, May 31
Choppy, drifty.
Good morning, this is Bates with your Ocean Surf Shop surf report and forecast for Friday, May 31 at 8:30 a.m.
The Folly Beach Wahine Classic is Saturday and Sunday. Come support these women this weekend at The Washout’s Contest Shack. Early Check in starts at Sunset Cay Marina this evening at 4:30 p.m.
We just got a new shipment of Stewart longboards in stock, including the new Ripster models, CMPs and Redline 11s. Come check those out.
We have choppy south-west wind swell at Folly today, and waves at The Washout are knee to thigh high with a waist high set. Occasionally, it’s a little bit bigger.
Winds are south-west at 10 to 15 knots, and surf-zone is choppy, drifty and kind of weak. It does not look great, but it’s bigger than it’s been for a few weeks.
Look for south-west winds at 20 to 25 knots this afternoon with choppy, drifty conditions.
Low tide is at 12:10 p.m., and high tide will be at 6:35 p.m.
The Edisto buoy is reading 6.2 feet at 6 seconds in a short period south/south-west wind swell.
We have wind-waves in the water ahead of an approaching cold front today. As high pressure finally moves away from the area tonight and a cold front moves offshore overnight. Look for choppy south/south-west wind swell to fill in and build this afternoon. Small south-west wind swell should hold for the longboard session into Saturday morning when winds go offshore, before surf falls off some for the remainder of the weekend.
Your NOAA Marine Weather Forecast for our marine area calls for: “A cold front will approach the area today then cross the region tonight. A trough of low pressure will persist over the weekend until another cold front pushes through Sunday night or Monday. High pressure will then build north of the region through the middle of next week.
It’s a beautiful morning. It’s 82* with sun. Look for scattered thunderstorms later today with a high temperature of 88*.
Water temperature is around 82*.
Sunrise is at 6:12 a.m. and sunset will be at 8:22 p.m.
