SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA SURF FORECAST UPDATED 4-19-13
______________________________________________________________________________

For Saturday morning the South swell should be in full swing with waist to chest high plus sets for the better South facing breaks. The OC and San O’ areas will be the best bet as the lesser exposed breaks will have a tough time pulling any energy in.

The West facing breaks will be a feeble knee to waist high and a medium high tide at first light will soften things up even more.

Monday morning looks pretty weak with some small, knee to waist high wind swell and remnant Southerly energy.

We’ll also see some fresh, steeply angled, (not as steep as it’s predecessor at 180-185 degrees), Southerly ground swell move in late in the day. This will, once again be a difficult angle for most breaks, but top spots should see chest to shoulder high sets by sundown.

The conditions look decent for beaches that can handle a SOuth wind with SE/SSE breezes in the 3-6 MPH zone until 11AM and those will get up to the 10-12 MPH zone out of the West for the afternoon. The air temp will top out at 66 degrees.

Tuesday morning looks pretty weak for the West facing beaches with some small, knee to waist high wind swell.

The new South swell should dish up some nice, chest to shoulder high sets for the most exposed spots in the OC and San O’ areas.

The tide looks a little fat around 8:30 but overall it shouldn’t do too much damage at the beach breaks.
