For Wednesday morning we’ll remain in the knee to waist high zone with the promise of some timid, steeply angled, NW energy starting to fill in later in the day.

The conditions look primo, (been wanting to use that word for quite some time), with variable winds in the 3-5 MPH zone until noon and 4-9 out of the West in the afternoon. The sea surface should be relatively smooth all day and the air temp skyrockets to 88 degrees on the sand.

For Thursday morning, (THANKSGIVING), we should finally have a little something to work with. While it will not be anything to really sink your teeth into, the most exposed West facing beaches should see waist to chest high sets with some larger waves mixing in at the better deep water breaks. The angle will be severe with a 300-315 degree direction so many spots will get completely stymied. San Diego and Baja Norte will be a safe bet. I wouldn’t be opposed to a Lobster Thanksgiving dinner in Puerto Nuevo…

The tides don’t vary much and conditions look great. Hopefully there will be enough surf to work up a good appetite!
