Surfline: Modest swell mid week; weekend cools off

September 1st, 2009, 12:23 pm · Post a Comment · posted by Laylan Connelly, staff writer

dsc_0160Surfline.com forecaster Chris Borg tells us what to expect with the waves and weather this week:

We’ll have partly cloudy skies along the coast in the mornings on Wednesday and Thursday, followed by sunny afternoons and high temperatures in the upper 70’s to low 80’s. Slow cooling trend starts on Friday and continues into the weekend, with more morning clouds and some fog for Saturday and Sunday. Temperatures top out in the low to mid 70’s then.

Hurricane Jimena is expected to cross over into Baja without generating any swell for Orange County. However, should Jimena’s track change and move further west we could see some swell by the end of the week. Otherwise, our surf will stay on the small side. A modest scale mix of south-south/southeast tropical swell and southwest Southern hemisphere swell rolls in on Wednesday and Thursday with mainly 2-3′, knee-waist high waves, as top spots see plus sets. The southerly swell combo begins to ease on Friday while a little new northwest windswell joins in.  All swell activity gradually winds down over the weekend.
