Ventura County Surf Forecast - For Thursday - 1/07/10

Make sure to read the full region forecast...it will help this one make sense, (Not promising any miracles though). Click here for the full forecast www.socalsurf.com.

The surf will start to pick up through the county in the morning, nothing all that big early in the day, but getting consistently larger as we move throughout the day. For the dawn patrol expect most spots to be in the waist-chest high range with a few chest high+ sets showing inconsistently at the better WNW spots. Standout breaks will be in the chest-shoulder high range on the sets. By the afternoon most breaks will be pretty consistent in the chest-shoulder high range while the best WNW-NW spots (the ones that like long-period energy) will see some head high+ sets starting to sneak through.

Winds look good for the morning…moderate offshore out of the ENE in the 10-15 knot range. Look for WNW winds around 10-15+ knots for the afternoon…getting a little breezy at the more wide open spots with no protection.

Here are the tides…
