Thursday, August 2
Very choppy and a bit drifty.
Good morning, this is Bates with your Ocean Surf Shop surf report and forecast for Thursday, August 2 at 8:30 a.m.
The SSC ESA Governor’s Cup of surfing takes place this weekend. Come by the shop to get signed up, and win a state title.
It’s Tax Free Weekend this weekend. We’ll be having 20% off apparel, flip-flops and sunglasses and more. So, save even more on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
Surf at the Washout is averaging thigh-to-waist high. There is a stomach to rib high set in punchy south wind swell. It should build as the tide comes in mid-morning.
Winds are south/south-west at 15 to 18 knots, and surf is choppy and a bit drifty.
We see south winds later today increasing to 15 to 20 knots. Surf will likely remain choppy and drifty throughout the day.
Tide is coming in. High tide will be at 12:05 p.m., and low tide will be at 6:13 p.m.
The Edisto buoy is reading 4.3 ft at 6 seconds in a mix of dominant south wind swell, and a smaller medium-period south-east swell.
We continue to see choppy south wind swell today average waist high with plus sets today. Surf continues rideable to end the work week a high pressure sits to our east and low pressure hangs to our west. This will keep on-shore winds in the forecast and lazy semi-choppy trade-wind swell at the beach through Friday. South winds drop off a bit for Friday, so look for better surf as the tide comes in Friday morning. Saturday, south wind swell continues but begins to fade. Surf fades out on Sunday and we should be back to small surf for the first full week of August.
Your NOAA Marine Weather Forecast for our marine area calls for: “Unsettled conditions will persist through Friday as the region remains situated between high pressure offshore and an inland trough of low pressure. Atlantic high pressure will build in for the weekend, before another inland trough develops during the early and middle parts of next week.”
It’s 80* and partly cloudy this morning. Look for a high of 82, with an 80% chance of rain and thunderstorms throughout the day.
Water temperature is 84*.
Sunset is at 8:16 p.m. and sunrise will be at 6:34 a.m.
