Tuesday, March 17
Textured. Semi-clean today.
Good morning, this is Bates with your Ocean Surf Shop surf report and forecast for Tuesday, March 17 at 8:30 a.m.
The City of Folly Beach has issued a state of emergency regarding the Covid-19 virus, and is encouraging social distancing at this time. Please see the City of Folly Beach’s Web site for more information.
Waves at Folly this morning are in the knee-thigh high range in a mixed direction easterly swell. There could be a bit bigger set on the tide push.
Winds are from the east/north-east at 8 knots, and surf is textured with clean faces.
We see winds around 5 knots today rotating south later this afternoon.
We have a low tide 9:30 a.m., and high tide will be at 3:30 p.m. The next low tide will be at 9:40 p.m.
The Edisto Buoy is down and not reading. But the virtual buoy is reading 1.6 ft. at 9 seconds in a mixed direction easterly swell.
Surf is about knee-to-thigh high this morning in a mix-direction easterly swell. We see mixed direction easterly swell to start the work week, with some swell slowly building from the south Thursday afternoon. Swell begins to build and come more southerly for Friday and Saturday ahead of a cold front, as south-west winds pick up at 15 knots, adding chop to south swell. Sunday, we see fresh north-east wind swell fill on once again.
Your NOAA Marine Weather Forecast for our marine area calls for: “High pressure to the north will shift offshore while some upper disturbances move through for mid week. A passing warm front Wednesday night will then bring unseasonably warm temperatures late week. Another cold front could move through later Saturday followed by cooler high pressure early next week.”
It’s 61* with cloudy skies this morning. Look for cloudy skies with afternoon showers and a high of 72* today.
Water temperature is around 63*.
Sunrise is at 7:26 a.m. and sunset will be at 7:28 p.m.
