Messy conditions up and down the Southeast coast this morning, with 3.5–4ft-plus swell at 9–11 seconds getting roughed up by persistent NE winds running 15–22 mph onshore to cross-onshore everywhere — all spots sitting at a ★2. South Carolina spots like Surfside Beach, Pawleys Island, and Garden City are getting the best angle on the SE swell with cross winds, giving them a slight edge over the blown-out OBX lineup. Conditions hold steady through the next day or two before this NE wind pattern eventually relaxes — keep an eye out for a cleaner window mid-to-late week.
