Tough morning across the Northeast — everything's sitting at ★1 with ankle-to-knee-high surf and not much period to work with. Best options are Gooch's and Higgins Beach in Maine where the NNW winds are running offshore, and Cisco Beach on Nantucket has the most size at 1.4ft if you're down there. Conditions hold flat through the next few days with no meaningful swell on the horizon, so unless something sneaks up the coast, it's a patient week ahead.
Rough morning across the Mid-Atlantic — every spot is sitting at a 1-star rating with knee-high slop under 15-25 mph cross-to-onshore NE winds chopping up whatever SE swell is trying to push through. If you're dead set on getting wet, Ocean City MD and Assateague are running the biggest faces at 1-1.3ft, but don't expect much. Conditions hold steady through the next couple days, so no real salvation on the horizon — sit tight and let this NE wind cycle clear out.
Pretty forgettable morning across the Southeast — everything's sitting at ★1 with choppy, short-period wind swell and mixed directions making it tough to find anything worth getting excited about. Carolina Beach has the cleanest look with offshore flow, and Frisco is the tallest at 2.8ft if you're willing to deal with crossed-up conditions. Conditions hold steady through the next few days, so don't expect any dramatic changes — keep an eye on any new swell windows but plan accordingly for more of the same.
Rough start to the week across the board — everything's sitting at a flat ★1 as onshore and cross-onshore SE winds 10-14 mph are chopping up what little swell there is. Daytona leads the pack at 2.1ft and Atlantic Beach is showing 1.8ft, but neither is worth the drive with this wind angle. Conditions hold steady through the next couple days, so don't expect any dramatic improvement — keep an eye on the long-range for any wind shifts that might clean things up.
Scrappy conditions across the Gulf this morning with everything sitting at a 1-star rating — short-period windswell, onshore to cross-onshore winds, and nothing worth driving far for. Bob Hall Pier and Port Aransas Jetty have the most size at around 2 feet, but that 6-second period keeps it weak and mushy. Expect things to fade further through tomorrow and into the weekend, so unless something new fires up in the Gulf, it's a flat spell ahead.
Small but punchy south swell running at 13 seconds is keeping things fun — D Street, Ponto, and Solana Beach are your best bets this morning with light offshores making the most of the waist-high sets (all ★2). Coronado Shores and San Onofre are worth a look if you're in the area, though winds are going cross. Conditions hold steady through the next couple days with no meaningful size change on the horizon, so enjoy what's here now — this one isn't building.
Fading swell across the region today with most spots sitting in the 2-star range — Jenner and Trees are your best bets at ★2.5, with light cross winds keeping things semi-clean this morning before onshore flow fills in. Jenner's got the most size at 5-6 feet on a 10-second NW, worth a look if you're up north. Expect continued fading over the next couple days as this northwest energy backs off, so get it while it's still rideable.
Conditions are pretty average across the Washington coast this morning — everything's sitting at a 1-star rating with short-period WNW swell keeping things choppy and gutless. Cape Disappointment and Ocean Shores have the lightest winds and some cross-shore flow making things slightly more manageable, but nobody's getting excited. The good news is swell is building through the next 24-48 hours, with Cape Disappointment and Long Beach picking up nearly two feet — if a longer period fills in behind this windswell, the weekend could get interesting.
Elevators and First Bay are your best bets today at ★1.5, picking up a fun 4-foot SE swell on 12-second period with cross-offshore NE trades keeping it relatively groomed. Everything else is pretty forgettable — small, inconsistent, and dealing with cross or onshore flow. Conditions hold steady through the next couple days, so don't expect a dramatic improvement; same story, same spots.
Rincon is pretty much flatlined this morning — everything's sitting at 1 star across the board, with 1.5 to 3 feet of choppy ENE windswell at 7 seconds. Winds are light and mostly cross-offshore at spots like Tres Palmas, Indicators, and Marias, which at least keeps things cleaner than the size deserves. Don't hold your breath for the next few days either — the trend is fading, so expect conditions to slide further before anything meaningful shows up.
