WEDNESDAY JULY 20
Choppy
Good morning, this is Chad with your Ocean Surf Shop surf report and forecast for Wednesday, July 20 at 8:30 a.m.
Waves at The Washout are knee-thigh high with a bigger set, occasionally. Overall pretty drained it with the low tide. Winds are on it this morning and it is choppy with a drift to the north.
Winds are west/south-west at 5-8 knots, and surf is choppy with the side-shore wind.
We are expecting winds to increase south-west at 10 to 15 by mid-afternoon with gusts around 25 knots. We will see continued chop in the surf zone later today, but waves will likely pickup a little with the incoming tide.
We had a low tide at 7:58 a.m. High tide will be at 2:28 pm. The next low tide will be at 8:38 p.m.
The Edisto Buoy is reading 3.6 feet at an average of 5.0 seconds in a shorter period south/south-east wind swell and a small south-east medium period swell.
Things continue choppy this afternoon as winds increase south-west at 15+ knots. High pressure continues well off the Mid-Atlantic states today. The south-west winds continue and there will be surf though mid-week. Low quality, short period south-west wind swell increasing late week, but it will likely still be rideable.
Your NOAA Marine Weather Forecast for our area currently calls for: “A trough of low pressure will linger well to the west today. A cold front will drop into the area Thursday night, then dissipate Friday. High pressure will build in through the weekend and early next week.”
It’s 79* with clear skies and breezy. We’ll have a high of 86* today with a chance of showers in the late afternoon.
Water Temperature is around 84*.
Sunrise is at 6:25 a.m., and sunset will be at 8:26 p.m.
