Is it still to early for the surf forecast for the HB contest? Is there extended extended forecast button?

+1 on stormsurf

The wildcard looks to be local weather

Edit: Here's the 180 hr. surf height/wind forecast model.

It can be paused and advanced/rewound by snapshot...

What will HB city do if it rains. Are we headed for another Oceanside shut down.

WSA says HB doesn't have the same hang-ups as O-side. I'm told next week looks dry.

Mike surfline reports are saying a 5-6 foot swell from 309 degrees on the 29th and drops to 4-5 foot on the 30th

peace and good waves

surfline forcast today FYI

Long range progs show a large scale low spinning under the Alaskan Gulf. That has potential to push in a solid NW(290-300+) groundswell for next Friday and the following weekend, 29th-31st. We'll keep you posted on the progess of that one.

SOUTH PACIFIC SWELL/SURF ACTIVITY: Nothing significant is expected from the SPAC for this week or the first half of next week. A modest scale SSW(185-200)Southern Hemi swell is due to roll in next Thurs/Fri 28th-29th, with knee-waist+ waves at well exposed spots. We'll keep you posted on that one.

From todays NWS Area Discussion:

HIGH PRESSURE WILL BRING DRY AND WARMER WEATHER THROUGH MONDAY...
BUT WITH A COLD NIGHT TONIGHT. A TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE WILL BRING
BACK THE CLOUDS AND MORE PRECIPITATION TUESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY. HIGH
PRESSURE WILL BRING DRY WEATHER AGAIN THURSDAY AND FRIDAY.

Hope it holds through saturday
