Wed., Oct. 4
Chop, drifty, blown out.
Good morning, this is Bates with your Ocean Surf Shop surf report and forecast for Wednesday, October 4, 2017.
Carolina Surf Film Festival is set for October 20-21st at the Brickhouse Kitchen here in Charleston. Always a good time.
Waves at the washout are thigh to waist high with stomach high sets. There is a rare bigger peak. It’s drifty and disorganized with side-shore, north-east wind swell conditions.
Winds are north/north-east at 15 to 18 knots knots, and surf is drifty and slightly blown out. Conditions are expected to stay the same throughout the day with north-east winds once again at 15 to 20.
We are coming off a high tide, and low tide will be at 1:20 p.m. The next high tide will be at 7:40 p.m.
Edisto buoy is reading 7.9 ft. at 8.3 seconds in easterly wind swell / ground-swell combo.
Surf still has a lot of wind on it, but it is rideable if you are into a drift session. Winds should become more moderate from the north-east late week, then swell and winds rotate more south-east tomorrow into Friday; continuing into the weekend. Hopefully the surf will get a little bit better form Friday and into the weekend in continued east/south-east wind-swell/ground-swell combo. Surf fades Sunday afternoon and to start the work week.
Your NOAA Marine Weather Forecast for our marine area calls for: High pressure will persist over the region for the remainder of the week. Low pressure will then move north from the Gulf of Mexico this weekend and early next week ahead of a cold front approaching the region during the middle of next week.”
It is 70* with sun and partly cloudy this morning. Expect a cooler day with a high of 79* and partly cloudy skies.
Water temperature is around 78* but will continue to drop this week with north-east winds.
Sunset is at 7 p.m. and sunrise will be at 7:14 a.m.
