Sat., Oct. 21
Clean early. Very choppy later.
Good morning, this is Bates with your Ocean Surf Shop surf report and forecast for Saturday, Oct. 21 at 8:30 a.m.
Carolina Surf Film Festival is set again tonight at the Brickhouse Kitchen here in Charleston. Go to carolinasurffilmfestival.com for tickets and more information.
Follypalooza is taking place on Center Street today, so plan for some traffic mid-day if you are coming to the beach.
Waves at the Washout at knee to thigh high with waist high sets, and looks fun for the longboard.
Winds are north at 5 to 8 knots, and surf is clean.
We see easterly winds at 10 to 15 knots rotate south-easterly at 15 to 20 later today with choppy wind-swell this afternoon.
High tide will be at 9:43 a.m., and low tide was at 3:09 a.m. and the next low tide will be at 3:43 pm. The next high tide is at 9:41 pm
Edisto buoy is reading 2.3 at 8 seconds in medium period south-easterly swell.
We see medium period easterly trade wind swell rotate more east to south-east today in the thigh high range with choppy conditions this afternoon. We see a more on-shore (south-east) wind and swell direction with wind swell building southerly late Sunday into Monday of next week, with choppy conditions ahead of a cold front. Look for strong south-west wins and choppy wind swell in the head high range for Tuesday before waves drop mid-week. There are still some waves in the forecast for your weekend and into early next week.
Your NOAA Marine Weather Forecast for our marine area calls for: “Strong high pressure will shift offshore this weekend. A cold front will then move through Monday night into Tuesday with a stronger but dry cold front to move through Tuesday night. High pressure will then prevail into late next week.”
We have a beautiful day at the beach. It is 74* and sunny this morning. Look for a high of 80* with sun through this afternoon.
Water temperature has dropped to around 73*with the cold snap. Might want to get a wetsuit soon.
Sunset is at 6:46 p.m. and sunrise will be at 7:23 a.m.
