Tough morning across the Northeast — everything's sitting at 1 star with onshore or cross-shore winds and short-period, unorganized swell. Maine has the most size, with Gooch's and Long Sands pushing 3-4ft, but the south wind is a mess and it shows. Conditions hold steady through the next couple days, so don't expect a magical turnaround — keep an eye on any north wind shift that could clean things up.
Rough morning across the Mid-Atlantic with cross-onshore SSW winds 15-25 mph making a mess of most lineups. Seaside Road is the standout at ★1.5 with the most workable shape, and Asbury Park is packing the most size at 4+ feet, though both are fighting the wind. Conditions hold steady through the next few days, so don't expect a dramatic improvement — keep an eye on any wind shift that could clean things up.
Rough morning across the Southeast — every spot is checking in at a flat ★1 with onshore or cross-shore wind hammering the coast from the SSW, leaving little worth paddling out for. If you had to pick, Avalon Pier and Duck Pier have the lightest winds and a cross-offshore angle, making them the most tolerable of a bad bunch. Conditions hold steady through the next couple days, so don't expect any magic — keep watching for a wind shift or a new swell to wake things up.
Slim pickings across the state this morning — everything's sitting at ★1 with weak, short-period SE windswell and cross to cross-onshore winds keeping things messy. Best bet right now is Indian Rocks Beach on the Gulf side with 3.4ft at 8s and cross-offshore winds, though it's still only a ★1. Good news is the trend is building heading into the next few days, so expect slow improvement up the East Coast — keep an eye on the Jacksonville to Daytona stretch as energy fills in.
Surf is pretty much flat across the Gulf today — all spots sitting at 1-star or below, with ankle-to-shin-high windswell and not much period to speak of. Best of the bunch are the Galveston spots and Surfside Beach at 1-star, helped by cross-offshore westerly winds keeping things relatively clean, though there's not much to work with. Conditions hold steady through the next few days, so don't expect any dramatic improvement — keep an eye on any frontal activity that might eventually kick up some south wind swell.
Clean SSW groundswell is filling in this morning with 15-second period energy showing up nicely up and down the coast. County Line and Dockweiler are your top picks at ★3, with County Line getting a favorable cross-offshore flow and faces building toward the 6-foot range — C Street, Emma Wood, and Newport are worth a look at ★2.5 with light winds holding early before sea breezes kick onshore midday. Swell looks to keep building through the next couple days, so expect conditions to improve if you can score the morning glass.
Solid mid-range surf up and down the coast this morning with everything sitting at ★2.5 — Half Moon Bay Jetty and Montara are your cleanest options thanks to cross-offshore flow, while most spots from Santa Cruz south are dealing with light onshore winds already. Conditions look to hold steady through the day, so what you see is what you get. The next few days should maintain similar energy, so no dramatic swings expected — pick your tide and get out early before the sea breeze builds.
Small, junky conditions across the PNW this morning — 3-4ft at 8 seconds isn't doing much with that onshore push already hitting most spots. Cape Disappointment and Long Beach are your best bets at ★1.5, with Cape D getting the cleanest look thanks to lighter cross-offshore winds before things turn onshore later today. Conditions hold steady through the next few days, so don't expect a dramatic change — same marginal surf, same story.
South swell is holding at 3-4 feet on 13-second period, keeping Ala Moana Bowls and Kaisers as the picks of the day at 2.5 stars — cross-offshore ENE trades are grooming things up nicely this morning. Conditions look steady through tomorrow with minimal size change expected, so enjoy what's out there now. Heads up on the outlook: watch for gradual fade over the next few days as this south pulse winds down, so grab your sessions sooner rather than later.
Pretty forgettable morning across the island — everything's checking in at ★1 with small, choppy NE swell running 2-3ft at 6-7 seconds. If you're going out anyway, head to the west side where Crash Boat, Gas Chambers, and Table Tops are seeing light offshore E winds keeping things cleaner than anywhere else. Conditions hold steady through the next couple days with no meaningful size on the horizon, so don't clear your schedule just yet.
