Sunday, April 22 at 8:30 a.m.
We have LOTS of boards on sale, including $100 off Roberts and WRV, come check out what we have in stock for this week’s upcoming swell.
Surf at the Washout is running thigh to waist high with occ. stomach high sets.
Wind is out of the north-east at 15 knots, and surf is choppy and drifty.
Look for strong easterly winds this afternoon at 15 to 20 with higher gusts, and surf should be choppy all day.
We are coming off a low tide this morning, and high tide is at 2:08 p.m., and low tide will be at 8:07 p.m.
The Edisto buoy reading 4.6 ft. at 6 seconds in a combination of south-east swell and east/south east wind swell, so there is some swell at the buoy, and we should have some
We have south-east wind swell in the water averaging waist-to-stomach high today with north-east winds at the beach (going east) keeping surf choppy and drifty. Surf should build late morning as winds become strong from the east at 20 to 25 knots. We have a gale warning in effect for Monday, and surf should be big and choppy in the head high (plus sets) range with “Victory at Sea” conditions. Winds stay onshore but drop for Tuesday, then winds go off-shore for Wednesday and swell cleans up while dropping some size. You’ll want to pull out the longboard by Thursday. There is swell in the forecast of varying quality today through Wednesday, so get some surf!
Your NOAA Marine Weather Forecast for our marine area calls for: “High pressure will begin to lose its influence today as a low pressure system approaches from the west. The low will pass nearby Monday and Tuesday, before slowly lifting up the coast through the middle of the week. Weak high pressure will prevail before a cold front crosses the area late week.”
It is a chilly 62* with sun and high clouds this morning. Look for a nice beach day, with a high of 70* and increasing clouds this afternoon.
Water temperature is around 64*.
Sunset is at 7:51 p.m. and sunrise will be at 6:46 a.m.
