Sloppy morning across the Northeast with everything fading — the Cape spots lead the pack at a modest ★2 with Nauset, Marconi, and Nantucket seeing 3-4ft at decent period, but NNE winds are cross-onshore and killing the shape. Rhode Island's offshore/cross-offshore flow at Misquamicut, Second Beach, and Weekapaug is cleaner but the short-period ESE windswell isn't doing much, keeping those at ★1.5. Expect conditions to slide further over the next couple days as this swell drains — keep an eye on later in the week if any new energy fills in.
Small, weak runners across the region this morning — everything's sitting at ★1.5, with the Jersey points like Seaside Heights, Seaside Park, and Island Beach showing the most water at 2.5-2.7ft, though the short 6-second period keeps it gutless. Cross-onshore NE winds are marginal at best and will only get worse as the day goes on. Trend holds steady through tomorrow with no meaningful swell on the horizon, so don't rearrange your schedule — this one's for beginners and longboarders only.
Small, mushy ESE swell is running 2-2.5ft at 9 seconds up and down the Outer Banks this morning, with North Buxton leading the pack at ★2 thanks to lighter, more favorable winds — most spots are sitting at ★1.5 with cross to onshore flow keeping things pretty average. Conditions hold steady through the next 24 hours, so don't expect any dramatic improvement today or tomorrow. If you're heading out, North Buxton or The Point are your best bets to find something worth paddling out for.
Small and weak across the board this morning — every spot sitting at a 1.5 with shin-to-knee-high surf at 8 seconds from the east. The cross-offshore SW/SSW winds are doing their best to clean things up, so Mayport Poles and Flagler Beach are your best bets given the slightly larger 2-foot faces. Conditions hold steady through tomorrow with no meaningful size on the horizon, so unless something fires up in the Atlantic, expect more of the same flat-ish grind for the next 2-3 days.
Pretty forgettable out there across the Texas coast — everything's sitting at a 1-star with ankle-to-shin-high windswell and not much to get excited about. Galveston Seawall and Surfside have the cleanest looks thanks to cross-offshore westerly winds, while spots like JP Luby and Matagorda are dealing with cross-shore slop. Conditions hold steady through the next couple days with no meaningful swell on the horizon, so don't clear your schedule — unless you're just trying to get wet.
Solid south swell is filling in at 13 seconds, keeping things fun but not epic across the region. Zuma, Huntington Cliffs, Newport Point, and San Onofre are all checking in at ★2.5 — Zuma edges ahead with cross-offshore winds this morning, while San Onofre's light northerly keeps it clean too; avoid Bolsa Chica and D Street where onshore flow is already muddying things up. Conditions hold steady through the next few days with gradual size building, so expect more of the same — worthwhile sessions if you pick your spot wisely.
Solid period swell pushing through this morning with San Simeon leading the pack at ★3 on clean offshore flow — best bet on the coast right now. Cowell's and Pigeon Point are also catching decent offshore winds at ★2.5, while most other spots are dealing with cross-shore chop that's taking the shine off otherwise workable surf. Conditions hold steady through tomorrow, so don't expect dramatic changes — same game plan applies the next few days unless a new swell trains up the coast.
Marginal conditions across the region today as a fading WNW swell delivers waist-high or smaller surf on short 8-second period. Cape Disappointment is the pick of a thin lineup at ★2, with La Push Second Beach and Rialto holding at ★1.5 — Shi Shi has the cleanest look with light offshore flow, though it's small. Swell continues dropping through the next couple days, so don't expect much improvement; keep an eye on the longer-range models for the next pulse.
Solid SSW groundswell filling in across the south shores this morning, with Barbers Point and Sandy Beach leading the pack at ★3.5 — Sandy is the pick with head-high-plus sets on 15-second period and that E trade wind holding cross-offshore. Ala Moana Bowls and Canoes are worth a look at ★3.0 with cleaner cross-offshore flow. Trend is building through tomorrow so expect faces to push a bit larger over the next 24-48 hours before likely easing by day three.
Small, weak NE swell filling in across the island today — nothing to write home about, but Middles, Pine Grove, and Playa Kikita are leading the pack at a modest 1.5 stars with waist-high sets and cross winds keeping things somewhat manageable. Wilderness is catching a slight cross-offshore edge if you want the cleanest look. Conditions hold steady through the next couple days with no meaningful size change on the horizon, so don't rearrange your schedule — this is purely an "if you need a paddle" kind of week.
