Wave Forecast: Knee-to-thigh. Rare waist.
Traffic: None.
Parking: Lots.
Dangers: Speed-traps on and off the island.

Good morning, this is Bates with your Ocean Surf Shop surf report and forecast for Monday, February 17, 2020 at 8:30 a.m.

All of our full-suits in the shop are now on sale. Come see if we have something that fits you while the selection is still good.

Surf at Folly this morning running knee-high with a  thigh set at the lower tide this morning.  It looks like it has potential to build just a bit as the tide comes in.

Winds are from the north-north/west at 5 to 10 knots, and surf zone is clean.  

Look for winds to drop off some this afternoon, going north-east at 5 to 10 knots.   

We have a lot tide at 8:53 a.m., and a high tide will be at 2:51 p.m. The next low tide is at 9:02 p.m.

The Edisto Buoy is reading 2.6 ft. at 6 seconds in an south-east swell with an north-easterly wind-swell reading approximately 3 ft. at 4 seconds.    

We have a little bit of mixed direction swell as the tide comes in this morning, and this should continue today, with surf averaging thigh-high, with perhaps a waist high set as the tide comes in. Best for the long-board if you need to get wet. We see building south wind swell ahead of a cold front Tuesday into Wednesday morning. Winds should not be too strong for today and Tuesday, so hopefully and there should be some small surf to ride for the high-volume sticks. Late week sees a strong cold front move through, and we’ll have strong north-east winds and bigger north-east wind swell for Thursday, Friday and into the weekend.

Your NOAA Marine Weather Forecast for our marine area calls for: “High pressure will prevail across the region today. A warm front will lift north through the area Tuesday, before a cold front pushes through on Wednesday. Cool high pressure will build in late this week and prevail through the weekend.”

It’s 53* and is partly cloudy this morning. Look for a high of 61* and we see clouds and sun mixed this afternoon.

Water temperature is 58*.

Sunrise is at 7 a.m. and sunset will be at 6:06 p.m.

Thanks for checking in with Ocean Surf Shop.
