Let's get into the surf report with this quick
preview from the podcast. Tuesday at Ocean Beach.
This morning it's looking clean with waves at
6 to 8 feet. Conditions will remain clean until
around noon when they become choppy as the wind
picks up to 9 miles per hour. Expect the wind
to stay onshore at 16 miles per hour through
the afternoon, creating more chop on the water.
Best time to ride is at 8 a .m. with a 3 -foot
outgoing mid -tide when the west -northwest swell
is 8 .5 feet at 10 seconds and the onshore wind
is 2 mile per hour. The first low tide on Tuesday
will be 1 foot at 11 .45 a .m. followed by a
3 .5 foot high tide at 8. The nearshore buoy
in San Francisco Bar reads 57 degrees for the
water temperature. Conditions begin with clean
waves around four to five feet, ideal for early
surfers. The swell remains steady through the
day, but afternoon winds may create choppy conditions.
Expect fair surf at three to five feet on Friday,
although choppy conditions develop later in the
day, making Saturday less appealing. Overall,
Friday offers the best surf before conditions
deteriorate. You can catch full episodes of Sunny
