SURF AND SUN

WEATHER FORECAST

A nice mild morning with a few clouds starts off the day. Temperatures

will be in the mid-60s on the way to a hot and sunny 81. Things will cool

off quickly, however, and by dinner time it will be in the low 70s. Late

afternoon will be nice and sunny.

BOATING FORECAST

Light winds in the harbor will keep the waves about 2 feet, with some

swells at 4 feet. The winds should peak 15 knots or so. Watch for the

usual morning fog.

In the deeper waters, there’s a small-craft advisory, with the

strongest winds at 30 knots northwest of San Nicolas Island. The waves

will be 4 to 5 feet. Watch for a northwest swell at 10 feet.

SURF

They don’t call it the summertime blues for nothing. Today brings more

of the same, 2- to 3-foot waves from a cross of southwest swell and

northwest wind swell. A steep south swell is poised to hit by Sunday

evening, but even that might miss us (but Huntington might see some nice

head-high waves).
