Good morning, this is Bates with your Ocean Surf Shop surf report and forecast for Wednesday, May 8 at 8:30 a.m.
Surf at The Washout is knee-to-thigh high. It’s rideable on the longboard if you need to get wet.
Winds are easterly at 10 knots, and surf is semi-choppy and weak.
Look for winds to continue easterly today at 10 to 15 knots with gusts to 20. Surf stays choppy and side-shore this afternoon.
High tide will be at 11:03 a.m. Low tide will be at 5:03 p.m.
The Edisto buoy is reading 2.6 ft. at 7 seconds in a medium period east/south-east swell.
Choppy surf averages knee-to-thigh high today with easterly winds at around 15 knots today keeping surf choppy. Surf looks fairly small today, but we should see a slight increase in south wind swell Thursday into Friday morning on the incoming tide as another cold front and some unsettled weather approaches our marine area, trending winds south/south-east. This swell should fall off over the Saturday, then pick up Sunday in a fresh, choppy, south-west wind swell.
Your NOAA Marine Weather Forecast for our marine area calls for: “High pressure will prevail through late week. A cold front will approach this weekend with increasing chances of showers and thunderstorms. Drier high pressure will build into the area early next week.”
It’s 73* with sunny skies. Look for a great beach day with a high of 81*and sun.
Water temperature is around 76*.
Sunrise is at 6:25 a.m. and sunset will be at 8:06 p.m.
