Pretty grim out there this morning — every spot across the Northeast is sitting at a flat ★1.0, with ankle-to-knee-high SSE slop and onshore winds already ruining what little there is. If you're desperate, Cisco Beach or Gooch's have the most water to work with at 2ft, but don't get your hopes up. Conditions hold steady through the next couple days with no meaningful swell on the horizon, so best to keep the board waxed and wait this one out.
Scrappy, weak conditions across the Mid-Atlantic this morning — knee-high slop at 5-6 seconds with nothing worth getting excited about. Best bets are Indian River Inlet and Asbury Park where offshore winds are at least cleaning things up a touch, though everything's sitting at ★1 regardless. Trend holds steady through the next few days, so don't expect a miracle — this pattern looks flat and uninspiring heading into the weekend.
Small and forgettable across the OBX and Crystal Coast this morning — everything's checking in at ★1.0 with waist-high or less surf and short periods. Best wind texture right now is at Avalon Pier, Duck Pier, and Corolla, where WSW flow is running offshore or close to it, but there's nothing worth a special trip. Conditions hold steady through the next couple days with no significant swell on the horizon, so unless something surprises us, it's a flat stretch ahead — good time to wax the board and wait.
Tiny and weak across the board this morning — every spot is checking in at a 1-star, with most of the East Coast sitting under knee-high slop on short periods. That said, if you're itching to paddle out, Daytona, Fort Pierce Inlet, and Bathtub Beach have the cleanest look with offshore/cross-offshore winds keeping it groomed, though "groomed" is doing a lot of heavy lifting on 1-footers. Trend holds steady through the next few days, so don't expect any magic — same story tomorrow and into the weekend.
Onshore SE winds are making a mess of things across the Gulf today — all spots are sitting at 1 star or below, with short-period wind slop dominating from Galveston down to South Padre. Best of a bad bunch are 61st Street, Seawall, and Matagorda pulling 1-star ratings on waist-high sets, but the wind's already onshore and not doing anyone any favors. The trend is building over the next 24 hours, so watch for size to fill in over the next couple days — just hope the wind cleans up with it.
Clean south swell is filling in this morning with that long 14-second period doing the heavy lifting — Coronado Shores leads the region at ★3.0, with San Onofre, Salt Creek, and Brooks Street all checking in at ★2.5. Winds are light and offshore to cross-offshore nearly everywhere, so conditions are tidy right now before the sea breeze kicks in this afternoon. Expect a slight fade over the next couple days as size eases a touch, but that period should keep things punchy and worth checking.
Winds are light and mostly cross-offshore this morning, keeping things cleaner than the size deserves — Little Wind-an-Sea and Natural Bridges lead the pack at ★3, with Shark's Cove worth a look on that 14-second south swell. Expect conditions to fade through the day as faces drop a foot or more across the board. The next couple days look smaller and less organized, so if you're on the fence, this morning's your best window.
Pretty forgettable out there this morning — everything across the board is sitting at a 1-star with small, mushy swell in the 3-4ft range at weak 9-10 second periods. Rialto and the La Push beaches have slightly more size if you're desperate, but conditions are underwhelming coast-wide. Wind is cross to cross-onshore at most spots already, so don't expect it to clean up; with the trend holding steady the next few days, don't pencil in any sick days just yet.
Hawaii is running on fumes right now — virtually every spot is checking in at a 1-star rating with ankle-to-chest-high surf and not much punch to speak of. If you're hunting for the cleanest conditions, Backdoor and Banyans have the lightest offshore or cross winds, though the waves themselves aren't worth writing home about. Conditions hold steady through the next few days with no meaningful swell on the immediate horizon, so it's a good week to wax your longboard or get those paddle sessions in.
Pretty forgettable morning across the island — everything's sitting at ★1 with knee-high slop running 1–1.5ft at 9 seconds. If you're determined to paddle out, Crash Boat and the Rincon stretch (Antonio's, Dogmans, Indicators) have the cleanest looks with cross-offshore or offshore flow keeping things tidy, while La Pared is already getting mushed by ESE cross-onshore winds. Conditions hold steady through the next few days, so don't cancel your plans waiting for a magic swell that isn't coming.
