WEATHER FORECAST

The coast along Newport Beach will see some early morning fog and low

clouds, though they’ll burn off for a mostly sunny day. Highs will be in

the mid-60s in Newport Beach and about 70 in Costa Mesa. Much of the same

will be found through this Memorial Day weekend, though high clouds may

be seen Saturday. Next week, it’s looking warmer so far.

BOATING FORECAST

The westerly winds will blow their typical 10 to 15 knots in the inner

waters this afternoon, with 2-foot waves and a west swell of 3 to 5 feet.

Winds will ease later tonight and the swell will back down to 2 to 4

feet. Areas of fog will be found both early and late.

Out farther, patchy fog will be found early. The winds will blow 10 to

15 knots, with 2-foot waves and a northwest swell of 4 to 7 feet. Later,

the winds will ease to about 10 knots, with 2-foot waves and a northwest

SURF

The latest southwest energy will provide us some waist- to chest-high

waves today, though we’ll back down to knee- to waist-high sets Sunday.

The rest of the long weekend, too, will be smallish.
