Saturday starts off with some new WNW-NW swell (280-300) starting to show early in the day but not getting a ton of new size on the beach for the morning. The WNW-NW builds in through Saturday afternoon and peaks throughout the day on Sunday. Small, much less consistent, SW energy (200-220) holds in the background.
Waves
Saturday will start off a little slow through the early morning…but the new swell will be just starting to show. Still we will have enough energy from the previous swell for the average spots to hold on to waist high+ sets, while the standouts in the South Bay see some chest-shoulder high+ waves. Look for bigger and more consistent surf to fill in through the afternoon, likely putting some head high+ sized sets in before dark.
The WNW-NW’er peaks on Sunday with consistent chest-head high surf at the average exposed breaks. Top NW facing spots…again mostly in the South Bay will have shoulder-head high+ surf fairly consistently and sets going a couple of feet overhead at times. Looks like points and reefs will have the best shape but expect smaller less consistent sets in those areas.
Winds
Variable S-SE winds move through LA on Saturday morning…mostly light but swirling around enough to push some bump in the more exposed areas. Building NW winds 10-15+ knots move in through the afternoon.
Sunday look for light and variable to light offshore winds early in the morning. Lighter winds through midday…and then building NW winds 10-15+ knots for the afternoon.
