Wednesday, August 15
Clean early. Chop this afternoon.
Good morning, this is Bates with your Ocean Surf Shop surf report and forecast for Wednesday, August 15 at 8:15 a.m.
Remember that Surfers Healing takes place at the Folly Beach Pier on Thursday, August 23rd. Check it out at www.surfershealing.org.
Also, make sure to check out the Warrior Surf Foundation’s raffle at Bohemian Bull on Saturday, August 25. There are eight different surfboards that will be raffled off. Get raffle tickets at the surf shop. Or, check it out at www.warriorsurf.org.
Waves at the Washout are knee to thigh high with a slightly larger set. It looks kinda’ fun for a high-volume board.
Winds are light from the west at 5 knots, and surf zone is fairly clean.
We see south-west winds at 10 knots this afternoon, becoming south at 10 to 15 knots late day.
Tide is coming in. We have a high tide at noon today, and a low tide be at 5:59 p.m.
The Edisto buoy is reading 3.9 ft. at 6 seconds in a mix of short period south-west wind swell and long-period south/south-westerly swell
Look for a slight increase in south/south-west wind swell/ground swell toward the latter part of the work week. Nothing to write home about, but it won’t be completely flat. Waves should average knee to thigh high, with perhaps a slightly bigger set at the right tides. This swell holds through Saturday before dissipating on Sunday. Tropics are still eerily quiet for this time of year. Bring on the hurricane swell, but not the hurricane.
Your NOAA Marine Weather Forecast for our marine area calls for: “A weak front will dissipate over the southern Midlands today. Inland low pressure will become more prominent this weekend and early next week, before a large area of low pressure develops over the eastern United States by the middle of next week.”
It’s 77* and sunny this morning. Look for a high of 86* and a 40% chance of a thunderstorm today.
Water temperature is 84*.
Sunset is at 8:06 p.m. and sunrise will be at 6:41 a.m.
