Surf's up, wave riders! The Southern California coast is brewing up some serious ocean action this weekend.
Orange County surfers get a mellow Saturday with 1 to 3 foot waves and a low rip current risk - perfect for beginners looking to catch some gentle swells. Water temperatures hovering around 61 to 63 degrees mean you'll want a light wetsuit. Newport Beach's tides are dancing through the day with dramatic shifts from negative 1.8 feet to a robust 7 feet.
But Sunday? Hold onto your boards! Things are getting wild with a high rip current risk and surf heights climbing to 3 to 5 feet with potential 6 foot sets. We're looking at a mixed swell cocktail - southern waves rolling in at 190 degrees blending with western swells coming at 260 degrees. This combo creates some seriously unpredictable conditions.
San Diego county surfers are in for an even more intense ride. Saturday brings moderate rip current risks with 2 to 4 foot waves. Water temperatures are slightly chillier at 59 to 62 degrees. But Sunday transforms the scene with epic 4 to 7 foot waves and a high rip current risk that'll challenge even experienced wave hunters.
The swell direction is complex - western waves from 250 degrees dancing with southern swells from 200 degrees. Translation: expect powerful, technical conditions that demand respect and skill.
Pro tip: Check conditions before heading out, use proper safety gear, and know your limits. Stay stoked and stay safe!
