Surf and Sun

WEATHER FORECAST

It’ll be much like Tuesday and Wednesday with early morning clouds

burning off to create a high of about 77 degrees in Costa Mesa. It should

be a bit cooler along the coast in Newport Beach.

The night, too, will be similar to Tuesday and Wednesday with a low of

64 degrees. Expect slightly warmer and more typical August conditions

Thursday and this weekend.

BOATING FORECAST

A light wind will begin the day in the harbor, though winds will pick

up to their usual 10 to 15 knots by the afternoon. At that time, expect

waves of 2 feet, as well as a 3-foot southwest swell. Not much will

change overnight.

Out farther, expect stronger winds at 15 to 25 knots out of the

northwest that will generate 2- to 4-foot winds and a northwest swell of

6 feet. Overnight, the winds will become even more fierce at 20 to 30

knots.

SURF

Pretty predictable knee- to waist-highs are continuing to bombard the

coast. While the occasional 4-footers will drop by, don’t expect too much

more from the surf, expected to be fair. Expect the same until Sunday

when larger waves may roll in.
