Surf and Sun

WEATHER FORECAST

Aside from the morning clouds, like those that persisted throughout

the weekend, it should be a somewhat beautiful day today. Should, of

course, being the keyword.

But if all pans out well, we’ll see a partly sunny day with highs in

the lower 70s in Costa Mesa and mid-60s in Newport Beach. And if all pans

out even more so, we’ll see the moon mostly cover the sun early this

evening. So, don’t be alarmed if that happens.

Overnight, lows will drop into the upper 50s.

Tuesday should be similar, though highs will inch higher come

Wednesday. Sorry the weekend wasn’t sunny, but we can only keep our

fingers crossed for the future.

BOATING FORECAST

The southeasterly winds will blow 10 to 15 knots in the inner waters

this afternoon, with 2-foot waves and a southwest swell of 3 feet. Winds

will ease this evening.

Out farther, expect similar conditions with a larger swell of 6 to 8

feet. It’ll back down a bit this evening, however, as the fog returns.

SURF

The southwest swell will do its best to bring some waist-highs and the

occasional chest-high today. However, it’ll do even better on Tuesday

when we should see some chest- to shoulder-highs.
