Hey everyone, here's your Southern California surf zone forecast for Tuesday through Thursday. We've got a Beach Hazards Statement in effect from three AM Tuesday through five PM Thursday, so pay attention to what's happening in the water over the next few days. Let's start with Orange County. Today's looking pretty fun with four to seven foot waves and sets pushing up to eight feet. The water's sitting at a comfortable sixty one to sixty nine degrees, so you won't need a super thick wetsuit. Here's the thing though: rip currents are High Risk, which means life threatening rip currents are likely. We're talking a mix of south wind swell coming from one ninety degrees and west swell from two seventy degrees creating some complex conditions out there. No thunderstorms expected, so at least you don't have to worry about lightning. High tide at Newport Beach hits at five thirty two AM at three point three feet, then we drop to a low of one foot around eleven thirty six AM before climbing back to four point eight feet at six thirty one PM. Wednesday in Orange County stays consistent with four to seven foot waves and sets to eight feet. Rip current risk stays High, so those dangerous currents aren't going anywhere. Same swell pattern continues with mixed south and west energy. Low tide hits early at one twenty three AM at one point one feet, high tide comes through at seven oh two AM at three point one feet, then another low at twelve twenty one PM followed by the day's high of five point four feet at seven oh eight PM. Now let's head down to San Diego County where conditions are similar but slightly smaller. Today we're looking at four to seven foot waves with water temps between sixty three and sixty eight degrees. Rip current risk is also High here, so same warnings apply. The swell's coming from two ten degrees on the south side and two eighty degrees from the west. At La Jolla, high tide starts the morning at five thirty AM with three point two feet, dropping to one point one foot around eleven thirty four AM, then rising to four point eight feet by six thirty PM. Wednesday in San Diego shows three to six foot waves for most beaches, though southwest facing beaches could see sets to seven feet. Rip currents remain High Risk. Same mixed south and west swell pattern. Tides follow a similar pattern with a low at one twenty AM, high at seven oh one AM at three point one feet, another low at twelve twenty one PM, and the day's peak at five point four feet around seven oh five PM. Here's the bottom line: if you're heading out over the next few days, treat these rip currents with serious respect. They're not just possible, they're likely. If you get caught in one, remember to stay calm, don't panic swim, and swim parallel to shore to escape the current. The waves look fun, but water safety has to come first. No thunderstorms in the forecast, so at least you've got that going for you. Stay safe out there. For more http://www.quietplease.ai Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta

episode San Diego County Surf Forecast Friday Saturday Small Moderate Waves High Rip Current Risk Water Temperature Sixty Five Seventy Degrees artwork

San Diego County Surf Forecast Friday Saturday Small Moderate Waves High Rip Current Risk Water Temperature Sixty Five Seventy Degrees

Good morning surfers, this is your San Diego County coastal surf forecast for Friday, June 12th through Saturday. Let's start with today. We're looking at small to moderate surf with waves ranging from two to five feet. The water temperature is sitting in a pleasant sixty-five to seventy degrees, so you'll be comfortable out there. However, here's the important part: we have a HIGH RIP CURRENT RISK in effect today. That means life threatening rip currents are likely, so if you're heading out, make absolutely sure you know how to identify and escape a rip current. Don't fight it. Swim parallel to shore. The swell is coming from mixed directions, primarily from two hundred ten degrees and two hundred eighty degrees, which should give you some decent shape. No thunderstorms are expected, so you won't have to worry about sudden weather changes ruining your session. Looking at the tides for La Jolla, we've got a low of minus point five feet at three oh two in the morning, then a high of three point three feet around nine twenty-three AM. There's another low at one fifty-five PM at one point eight feet, followed by a higher tide of six point four feet at eight twenty-six in the evening. Now moving into Saturday, conditions are improving slightly. The surf will dial back a bit to two to four feet with some local sets reaching five feet. Here's the good news: the rip current risk drops to MODERATE, which means life threatening rip currents are still possible but less likely than today. Water temperature remains consistent in that sixty-five to seventy degree range. The swell direction stays fairly consistent, still coming from two hundred ten and two hundred eighty degrees. Again, no thunderstorms expected, so conditions should remain stable throughout the day. Saturday's tides at La Jolla show a low of minus one point one feet at three forty-nine AM, a high of three point five feet at ten nineteen AM, a low of one point nine feet at two forty-four PM, and the day's highest tide of six point eight feet at nine ten PM. Overall, it's a decent couple of days to get in the water, just make sure you respect those rip currents today and stay safe out there. Have fun.

San Diego Surf Forecast June 11-12: 3-5 Foot Waves, High Rip Current Risk, 64-68 Degree Water

Good morning, this is your San Diego County surf zone forecast for Thursday, June 11th and Friday, June 12th, brought to you by the National Weather Service. We're starting today with a Beach Hazards Statement in effect through 5 PM this afternoon. If you're planning to hit the waves, listen up because conditions are definitely something to respect. Let's break down what's happening in San Diego County coastal areas today. We're looking at surf heights ranging from 3 to 5 feet with sets reaching up to 6 feet. The water temperature is sitting at a comfortable 64 to 68 degrees, so you'll want your wetsuit but nothing too heavy. The swell is mixed, coming from both southwest and west directions at 210 and 280 degrees respectively, which creates that nice variety we sometimes get this time of year. Now here's the important part. Rip currents are going to be HIGH today, and that's not something to take lightly. Life threatening rip currents are likely, so if you're not an experienced swimmer or surfer, you might want to stick to the beach or stay in shallow water. Always remember that if you get caught in a rip, swim parallel to shore rather than fighting it head on. Tide-wise, we've got a low of about 0.3 feet early this morning at 2:14 AM, followed by a high of 3.2 feet around 8:18 AM. The afternoon brings another low of 1.6 feet at 1:08 PM, and then the tide really cranks up with a high of 5.9 feet at 7:44 PM. That evening high could offer some interesting conditions if you're an evening session kind of person. Looking ahead to Friday, the rip current risk stays HIGH, so that cautious approach should continue. The surf will ease up a bit to 2 to 4 feet with sets reaching 5 feet. The mixed swell will still be with us from those same southwest and west directions. Water temperature holds steady in the mid 60s. There's no thunderstorm potential either day, so at least weather-wise you can focus solely on ocean conditions. The Friday tides show a low of negative 0.5 feet very early in the morning around 3:02 AM, which means we'll get some really exposed sand bars. High tide comes at 3:3 feet around 9:23 AM, another low of 1.8 feet at 1:55 PM, and that evening high peaks at 6.4 feet around 8:26 PM. Here's what I'd recommend. If you're heading out, go during the morning when there's more light and more people around. Pick your spot carefully, stay aware of your surroundings, and don't underestimate that rip current risk. Conditions are fun but they're definitely powerful right now. Stay safe out there, and enjoy what the ocean is serving up this Thursday and Friday.

Southern California Surf Forecast June 10 11 2026 High Rip Current Risk Orange County San Diego County

Good morning, this is your Southern California surf zone forecast for Wednesday, June tenth through Thursday, June eleventh, twenty twenty-six. A Beach Hazards Statement remains in effect through five PM Thursday for both Orange County and San Diego County coastal areas, so listen up if you're planning to hit the water. Let's start with today. We're looking at four to seven foot surf across the region with a mixed swell situation. Orange County will see south swell from one ninety degrees mixing with west swell from two sixty degrees, while San Diego County is getting similar conditions with south swell from two ten degrees and west swell from two seventy degrees. Either way, you're getting some interesting wave energy coming from multiple directions. Now here's the big one: we have a HIGH rip current risk in effect for both areas. That means life threatening rip currents are likely, so if you're not experienced with reading currents, this might be a good day to watch from the beach instead of swimming. Water temperatures are pleasant though, ranging from sixty-one to sixty-nine degrees in Orange County and sixty-four to sixty-eight in San Diego County, so at least you won't be cold. Tide-wise, we've got a low at one twenty-three AM in Newport Beach and similar timing down in La Jolla. High tide comes around seven AM, then another low at midday before a significant high tide around seven PM at five to five point nine feet. No thunderstorms are expected today, so at least the sky should cooperate. Moving into Thursday, the rip current situation doesn't improve. We're still looking at HIGH rip current risk across the board. Surf heights will trend slightly down to three to six feet as the swell moderates a bit. South swell maintains its presence but the west swell angle shifts slightly. Orange County will see west swell from two forty degrees while San Diego County gets it from two sixty degrees. Tides on Thursday show a very low tide of just point three feet early morning around two seventeen AM in Newport and two fourteen in La Jolla, which is unusually low. High tide climbs to three point two feet around eight AM, then drops to one point six feet by early afternoon before rising to around five point nine feet by seven PM. Again, no thunderstorms expected Thursday, so conditions remain dry overhead even if the water is churning below. The bottom line: we've got solid waves the next two days, but those rip currents are the headline. If you're heading out, know your limits, stay aware of current flows, and consider surfing near lifeguard stations. The mixed swell is creating dynamic conditions that keep things interesting, but respect the ocean and you'll have a great session. Stay safe out there.

episode Southern California Surf Forecast: 5 to 8 Foot Waves Tuesday with High Rip Current Risk Orange County San Diego artwork

Southern California Surf Forecast: 5 to 8 Foot Waves Tuesday with High Rip Current Risk Orange County San Diego

# Southern California Surf Zone Forecast Good morning, this is your Monday morning briefing for the Orange County and San Diego County coastal areas, brought to you by the National Weather Service San Diego office. We're looking at some solid conditions developing over the next few days, with a Beach Hazards Statement in effect from three AM Tuesday through five PM Thursday. Let's break down what you need to know. Today is shaping up nicely for the water with surf heights running three to five feet, with some sets pushing up to six feet. We're dealing with a mixed swell situation here, combining a south swell from around one hundred ninety degrees with a west swell coming in from two hundred seventy degrees. The water temperature is holding steady in the low to mid sixties, so you'll want to suit up. Most importantly, we're looking at a high rip current risk, so definitely be aware of that if you're planning to paddle out. The good news is there's no thunderstorm activity expected today, so at least you won't have to worry about lightning. The tide situation at Newport Beach shows a high of three point six feet early this morning around four AM, dropping to a low of less than a foot around eleven AM, then building back up to four point three feet by early evening. If you're heading down to the San Diego area around La Jolla, we're seeing similar patterns with that high tide just before four in the morning. Now here's where things get interesting. Tomorrow, Tuesday, we're expecting an upgrade in swell activity. Surf heights are climbing to five to eight feet in Orange County, and four to seven feet down in San Diego County. That mixed swell pattern is continuing with the same directions, so you'll get some really nice shape in the water. The high rip current risk is still in play, which makes sense with bigger surf, so use your best judgment out there. No thunderstorms expected again, which is great for a full day in the water. The tides on Tuesday will see that high rolling through around five thirty in the morning at Newport Beach, the low right around midday, and another high building in around six thirty in the evening. Down in La Jolla, the timing is virtually identical. A couple of important reminders about what a high rip current risk actually means. These are life threatening rip currents that are likely to develop. If you find yourself caught in a rip, the key is to stay calm and swim parallel to the shore until you break free of that current. Don't panic and don't fight it directly. Bottom line, we're looking at solid swell building into tomorrow with great shape and solid size. Just respect those rip currents, keep an eye on conditions, and make smart decisions out there. The water is cool but doable, and there's no weather interference to worry about. Stay safe out there and enjoy the waves. For more http://www.quietplease.ai Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta
