North Orange County
Surf Forecast Overview

3-4ft
Summary:
The mix of peaking SSW-SW swell (200-220) will hold through the day on Tuesday while the blend of short-period WNW-NW windswell continues to move in from our outer waters. Winds look like they may spin up some more eddy texture as we move through the day...not horrible, but enough to add some crumble to the more exposed spots.
