Small, mushy stuff across the board this morning — everything's sitting at ★1.5 with 2-3ft of ESE energy on short 8-second period. Fortunes Rocks and Short Sands have the cleanest looks right now with lighter cross winds, while most Cape spots are already fighting onshore flow. Conditions hold steady through tomorrow before any meaningful change, so don't expect much improvement in the next few days — check back if a new swell window opens up.
Small, weak ESE groundswell is running 2-3ft at 8 seconds this morning — nothing special, but the light winds are keeping it cleaner than it has any right to be. Best bets are 30th Street Pier and Avalon Jetty up in Jersey, both sitting at ★2.0, with South End also worth a look if you want slightly more cross-offshore texture. Conditions hold steady through the next couple days with no meaningful size on the way, so don't cancel your plans for the surf — it'll be there if you need a paddle-out fix.
Small ESE swell is running 2-3ft at 8 seconds across the Outer Banks this morning, with The Point Buxton and North Buxton leading the pack at ★2 — cross-offshore winds are keeping faces semi-clean but it's nothing to write home about. North Pea Island is worth a look too with cross-offshore flow at 14 mph out of the SSW. Enjoy it while it lasts — this thing is fading through the day and the next couple days look smaller, so manage expectations heading into the week.
Small and pretty junky out there this morning — every spot on the list is sitting at 1.5 stars with waist-high to chest-high surf at 9 seconds, and onshore winds from the ESE are keeping things messy up and down the coast. If you're going out anyway, Daytona and Flagler are picking up a touch, and Jetty Park's 13-second period gives it a slight edge in quality. Conditions hold steady through the next couple days, so don't expect a dramatic improvement — same story, different morning.
Tough morning across the Texas Gulf — everything's sitting at a 1-star with onshore wind already up and messing up what little swell there is. Bob Hall, Port A Beach, and JP Luby are technically topping the list at 1.3ft, but a 1-star is a 1-star; Isla Blanca and South Padre at least have slightly cleaner cross-onshore flow if you're desperate. Conditions hold steady through the next few days with no meaningful change on the horizon, so don't clear your schedule waiting for a turnaround.
Long-period SSW swell is filling in nicely — Cabrillo and White Point are your best bets right now with that cross-offshore WNW wind keeping things semi-groomed, while Rockpile is showing the most size at 4.4ft on a solid 15-second period, all checking in around ★2.5. Wind goes onshore early at most spots, so get out at dawn. Swell continues building through tomorrow, so expect conditions to step up another notch — enjoy it while the period holds because it'll likely back off by day three.
Solid SW swell is filling in across the region with sets building through the day — Cable Landing and Caspar are your best bets right now at ★3.5, with Caspar throwing the most size at 8.7ft on a clean 14-second period despite some cross-onshore flow. Wind is the story keeping ratings in check across most spots, so hit it early before conditions deteriorate. Expect faces to continue building over the next 24-48 hours as this swell peaks, with the usual wind timing determining who scores and who watches.
Decent swell in the water this morning with that 14-second SW period keeping things respectable — La Push First Beach is your best bet at ★2.5, with NNW winds sitting cross-offshore and making it the cleanest option on the coast; Rialto is the same rating but winds are cross-onshore so First Beach wins. Everything is building through the next 24 hours, and that trend should carry into a solid mid-week window — expect faces to fill in another half-foot or more, with the outer coast spots like First Beach and Kalaloch likely pulling the best of it.
Solid south swell running at 15 seconds is lighting up spots across the islands today — Diamond Head Cliffs, Honolua Bay, and Sandy Beach are all checking in at ★3.5, with ENE trades keeping things cross to cross-offshore at most breaks. Keaau and Makaha are getting true offshore treatment if you want cleaner faces, though size is modest on that side. Conditions hold steady through the next few days, so no dramatic swings expected — enjoy what's here now.
Solid NE swell running island-wide at 4-5ft and 12 seconds, with most spots checking in at 2.5 stars — Wilderness and Jobos holding the best wind angle right now, while Fiji and Playa Manati are already getting crossed up with onshore texture. Trades are blowing 14-18mph out of the east, so your cross-offshore and cross setups on the northwest coast are where you want to be before conditions deteriorate through the day. Swell looks steady over the next 2-3 days, so don't expect a big jump — just more of the same, which isn't a bad thing.
