We see waist to chest high wind chop today with bigger sets. Look for continued strong south-westerly winds today with at 15 to 20 with higher gusts ahead of an approaching cold front. It crosses late this afternoon. Will that make winds switch west before dark? This drops rapidly on Wednesday morning as winds become strong westerly overnight after this cold front passage. Surf looks pretty small for the second half of the work week as cool high pressure sets up over our marine area.
Your NOAA Marine Weather Forecast for our marine area calls for: “A strong cold front will approach from the west this morning, then cross the late area this afternoon. Cool high pressure will build in for the latter half of the week. Another cold front could impact the area late next weekend.”
It is 62* with sun this morning. Look for a high of 70* with strong thunderstorms and wind.
