SURF AND SUN

WEATHER FORECAST

Partly cloudy skies grace the morning, along with temperatures in the

low 60s. Expect it to climb into the 70s by late morning on the way to

the high 70s. The sun should poke out by early afternoon. It should be a

nice, cool and clear evening.

BOATING FORECAST

Light winds throughout the day in the harbor, between 10 and 15 knots

from the west with 2-foot wind waves. The swell will be a mix of south

and west at 3 feet. Watch for patchy morning fog. By evening, the swell

will pick up to about 4 feet, but the winds will remain the same.

In the outer waters, the winds will start out from the northwest and

less than 10 knots and then pick up to 15 to 20 knots in the afternoon.

The strongest winds will be northwest of San Nicolas Island. The wind

waves won’t be bad, just 1 to 3 feet. The swell will be mixed from the

south and northwest at 5 feet. It stays that way into the night.

SURF

A steep southeast swell will pretty much pass Newport Beach by,

continuing the string of poor surf this summer. Expect waist- to maybe

chest-high waves. The high tide will hurt things too.

There’s hope: Next week looks to have a string of decent swells headed

this way.
