Weak, onshore slop across the Northeast today — everything's sitting at ★1 with tiny, short-period SSE wind swell and most spots dealing with onshore or cross-onshore flow. If you're desperate to get wet, Short Sands York and Long Sands have the cleanest wind angles, but expectations should be rock-bottom. Conditions hold flat through the next couple days with no meaningful swell on the horizon, so enjoy the offseason rest.
Small and weak across the whole region this morning — everything's sitting at a 1-star with mushy SSE windswell in the 1-2 foot range. The offshore westerlies are the one saving grace, and if you have to paddle out, Indian River Inlet, Avon, and Asbury Park are showing the most water at 2-plus feet. Conditions hold steady through the next few days with no meaningful swell on the horizon, so don't hold your breath for improvement this week.
Tiny, weak surf up and down the NC coast this morning — everything's sitting at ★1 with waist-high-and-under slop at short periods. Best wind situation is at Avalon Pier, Duck Pier, Kitty Hawk, and Jennettes, where WSW-to-offshore flow is at least keeping faces clean, but there's not much to work with at 1–1.6ft. Conditions hold steady through the next couple days with no meaningful swell on the horizon, so unless something changes, this stretch stays flat and forgettable.
Flat and junky across the board this morning — every spot is sitting at a 1-star, with most of the coast already onshore and nothing worth paddling out for. Daytona and Flagler are your best bets if you absolutely need to get wet, with slightly cleaner winds and a touch more size, but don't get your hopes up. Conditions hold steady through the next few days, so no meaningful swell on the horizon — good time to wax your board and wait it out.
Onshore SSE wind is blowing this one apart, leaving Galveston Seawall, Matagorda, and Surfside as the only spots scraping a 1-star rating on junky 3-foot, 6-second wind slop. Everything else is basically flat and blown out. The trend is building over the next 24 hours, so watch for slightly more size through midweek, but until that wind clocks offshore or dies down, don't expect the ratings to follow the swell up.
Leftover south swell is still pushing 3-4ft at 15 seconds, keeping things rideable this morning — San Onofre leads the pack at ★3.0, with Cottons, Brooks Street, and the San Diego crew at Coronado Shores and Pacific Beach all checking in at ★2.5. Winds are already light onshore south, so catch it early before conditions get choppy. Swell fades through the next 2-3 days, so today's your best window — expect the ratings to slip another half-star by tomorrow as the energy drains.
Catch it early — conditions are solid this morning with most spots sitting at 3.5 stars before the swell fades through the day. Carmel Beach and Jenner are your best bets with offshore to cross-offshore winds keeping faces clean, while 38th, Trees, and Toes Over offer a more manageable 6-foot range with light cross-offshore flow. Expect faces to drop 1.5–2.5 feet over the next 24 hours, so the next couple days will be smaller and scrappier — get your sessions in now.
Small, punchy conditions holding across the coast today — Kalaloch, Pacific Beach, and Westport Jetty are all sitting at a modest ★2 with 4-foot sets at 9 seconds, and that light northerly cross-offshore wind is keeping faces reasonably clean. La Push is a touch smaller and more textured at ★1.5, worth skipping unless it's your backyard. Conditions look to hold steady through the next couple days, so don't expect any dramatic improvement — same story, same size.
Slim pickings across the islands today — everything's sitting at a 1-star range with surf running well below knee-to-waist on most indicators. Best wind situation right now is the North Shore, where Backdoor and Banzai Pipeline are pulling cross-offshore to cross-shore flow (both ★1), and Chuns is also clean-ish; Canoes and Banyans have onshore already ruining what little there is. Conditions hold steady through the next couple days, so don't rearrange your schedule — this flat spell looks like it's sticking around.
Tiny ENE swell has the west coast barely waking up, with Antonio's and Pools in Rincon leading the pack at a humble ★1 — think ankle-to-shin-high sets, but north winds are keeping it clean at both spots if you want to get wet. Aviones and Domes are cross-shore and not worth the drive. Conditions hold steady through the next couple days with marginal size, though Wilderness is showing the most growth — keep an eye on it if that trend continues into day three.
