choppy and weak.

Dangers: Flat spell and HOT!

Good morning this is Bates with your Ocean Surf Shop surf report and forecast for Thursday, July 13 at 8:30 a.m.

Waves at the washout are flat.

Winds are south at 5 knots, and surf zone is clean, early.

Look for south-east winds at 10 to 15 knots this afternoon, and small chop in the surf zone.  

Low tide will be at 11 a.m., and high tide will be at 5:38 p.m. Tide will be going out until well after dark.

The Edisto Buoy is reading 1.6 feet at 10 seconds in a small, long-period period east/south-east swell, but it’s small and not much is making it into the beach as the tide falls this morning. 

Not much to say. It’s glassy, it’s small. May be some cruisers with the incoming tide-to-mid tide but winds are forecast to come south at 15 knots. We could see slightly bigger south swell for Friday into Saturday morning, but south winds will likely keep things choppy. There is a chance for small, choppy south-west wind swell to begin to build up Saturday afternoon into Sunday, but it’ll be kind of typical summer wind swell with side-shore conditions. Still waiting on the tropics to start into gear for our first real taste of swell. Monday and Tuesday of next week look pretty small.

Your NOAA Marine Weather Forecast calls for: “An inland trough of lower pressure is expected to persist into early to middle of next week.”

Water temperature is around 85*

It’s 84* with blue skies this morning. It is very humid. Expect sunny and hot weather all day with a high of 88. There is a chance for a thunderstorm this afternoon.

Sunrise is at 6:21 a.m., and sunset will be at 8:29 p.m.

Thanks for checking in with Ocean Surf Shop.
