Drifty, semi-choppy.
Good Morning. This is Bates with your Ocean Surf Shop surf report and forecast for Tuesday, Aug. 1 at 8:30 a.m.
Waves at The Washout are thigh to waist high. There should be a bigger set late morning as the tide rolls in.
It is closing out some at the morning’s low tide, but should get better form as the tide rolls in late morning.
Winds are north/north-east at 10 knots, and surf is semi-clean with some side-shore drift down the beach.
We expect north-east winds today at 10 knots with higher gusts and semi-choppy surf all day.
Low tide is at 9:33 a.m., and high tide will be at 4:14 p.m.
Edisto Buoy is reading 5.2 ft. at 7 seconds is medium period east/north-east swell.
We see swell from Tropical Depression Emily mix with east/north-east wind swell today and Wednesday, fading some by Wednesday afternoon. Swell fades for late in the work week, then we see choppy south-west wind swell return for the weekend.
Your NOAA Marine Weather Forecast for our marine area calls for: “Dry high pressure will prevail through tonight while Tropical Depression Emily passes well offshore. A stationary front to the south will lift northward Thursday, then dissipate by Friday. A cold front will then approach on Saturday, becoming stationary over the region through early next week. Refer to the latest advisory on Emily issued by the National Hurricane Center.”
It is 72* and absolutely beautiful at the beach. Look for sun with passing clouds and a high of 85*.
Water temp is around 83*.
Sunset is at 8:18 p.m. and sunrise will be at 6:33 a.m.
Thanks for checking in with Ocean Surf Shop.
Tropical storm Emily formed in the Gulf of Mexico overnight, and should cross Central Florida moving north-east into the Atlantic off-shore of our waters. Not much time for it to create a swell train, but it should enhance this east/north-east swell through mid-week. Go surf!
