Surf and Sun

WEATHER FORECAST

The rain that finally arrived Monday evening will stick around early

this morning but should clear by late morning, allowing the sun to break

through and dry things up.

While the clouds are around early, however, expect temperatures in the

low to high 50s. Highs will eventually rise into the mid-60s today but

will drop considerably into the low 50s again overnight. Expect warmer

highs and more sunshine Wednesday.

BOATING FORECAST

In the inner waters, the northwesterly wind will blow 10 to 20 knots

throughout the day, with waves of 2 to 3 feet and a west swell of 4 feet.

Out farther, there is a small watercraft advisory in effect as the

northwesterly winds blow 15 to 25 knots, with waves of 2 to 4 feet and a

northwest swell of 10 feet. The winds will ease a bit later to 10 to 20

knots. The swell, too, will subside to about 8 feet by morning.

SURF

Wave sizes will pick up today as a northwest swell rolls in. Expect

waves to range from the chest to a foot overhead today. Surf should be

even larger Wednesday. But with Monday’s rain, runoff will pose health

problems, the Orange County Health Care Agency has reported.
