Wednesday surf report: A little crumbly and bumpy

April 8th, 2009, 7:21 am · Post a Comment · posted by Jeff Malanca, contributing writer

Waking up with the waves on Wednesday.  Well it’s looking a little crumbly and bumpy out there.  We’re dealing with a light to moderate northwest wind which is putting some bump or light chop on it.

We’ve got a mix of  continued fading south southeast swell and some minor west northwest energy in the water.  That recipe is making for some fairly sectiony lines with a few workable ones.

Most OC beaches are running about knee to stomach high with the focal points pulling chest high waves with a few plus sets.

At 9:17 this morning the tide climbs up to a 4.8 high and then drops to a 0.3 low at 3:09 this afternoon.  If you’re planning on paddling, break out no more than a 4/3 fullsuit with the water temp at most spots hanging between 57 and 59 degrees.

Good luck!!
