3-5ft
Mostly Cloudy

Sat, May 25 - rideable
waist to head high with occasional head high sets.
Summary:

Saturday one SSW swell will start to fade out while a new long-period S-SSW swell (all lumped together in the 180-210 swell direction range) will be on the rise. WNW-NW windswell backs down as the winds in the outer waters start to mellow out as well, which could help weaken the eddy winds. Look for plenty of surf at the S-SW exposed beaches, and weaker waves at the windswell spots.

chest to head high with occasional overhead sets.
Summary:

Memorial Day will have a mix of holding S-SSW swell (180-200) and a building WNW-NW windswell (285-300). The windswell will layer in more energy as we head into the afternoon. Winds look a little better for Monday morning as they blow out of the E-ESE, but there may be a few small pockets of texture lurking at the more exposed spots.

Tue, May 28 - marginal
waist to head high with occasional head high sets.
Summary:

Tuesday will see conditions backslide a bit as the coastal eddy deepens again, spinning up some onshore winds for most of the coast. There may be a few lucky pockets of cleaner conditions but expect them to be rare. Swellwise the S-SSW swell will be slowly winding down as it mixes with some background SW energy and some building NW windswell.

Decreasing Clouds
Wed, May 29 - marginal
waist to shoulder high with occasional head high sets.
Summary:

The eddy winds continue on Wednesday while the S swell (180-195) continues to back down losing both size and consistency. NW windswell will hold steady through the day helping to keep some size showing at the exposed spots. A new little burst of long-period SSW swell will show by the end of the day but looks better for Thursday.
