Good Morning. This is Bates with your Ocean Surf Shop surf report and forecast for Sunday, Aug. 27 at 8:30 a.m.
Waves at The Washout are thigh to waist high with a larger set at the morning’s lower tide. Surf is choppy.
Surf-zone is side-shore and very drifty down the beach, from north to south.
Winds are currently north-east at 15 to 20 and should be gusting to 30 by this afternoon. We see drifty, choppy surf all day.
High tide is at 12:58 p.m., and low tide will be at 7:01 p.m.
Edisto Buoy is reading 6.6 ft. at 4.9 seconds in short-period, high angled north-east wind swell.
We see waist to stomach high north-east wind waves today with a bigger set this morning as the tide comes in. Look for waist to stomach high surf this afternoon with very choppy, drifty conditions. We expect continued high-angled north-east wind swell all day. Swell could build some Monday as low pressure moves to our south along a frontal boundary and high pressure continue to our north. Look for surf to average waist to stomach high in drifty conditions today into Monday.
Your NOAA Marine Weather Forecast for our marine area calls for: “High pressure will continue to the north through tonight, while a front lingers offshore. An area of low pressure is expected to track northeast near the coast early this week. High pressure should then prevail mid-week before a front stalls near the region late week.”
It is 75* with clouds this morning. Look for a high of 82* and a 40% chance of rain and thunderstorms.
Water temperature is 86*.
Sunset is at 7:55 p.m. and sunrise will be at 6:48 a.m.
