Definitely some new waves coming through in the morning…the swell will be showing a bit more up this way thanks to the county being a little further west than the counties further south. I expect the average spots to be running in the chest-head high range pretty consistently through the morning, particularly after the tide drops down a bit from the pre-dawn high tide. The top WNW-NW spots, mostly through the South Half of the county, will be in the shoulder-overhead range with some sets going a couple of feet overhead by the afternoon. Points/Reefs will have the best shape…but some of the beach breaks that have something to break up the swell might be worth a look if you can’t handle the point-break crowds.
Winds look good…E around 10-15 knots for the morning and then downshifting a couple of notches but staying sort of variable (even variable offshore/sideshore) for the afternoon. Looks like a really good chance that it will stay pretty clean and surfable throughout the day.
Here are the tides…

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

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.
