South San Diego Forecast

Today

Still punchy surf as swell eases, most size in the AM. Best winds then too.

Dawn-10am: Slow fading but still healthy SSW swell, along with a little NW swell, keeps waves running head high+ at southerly exposures in the morning, while better breaks are overhead.

Slight SW wind on tap this morning for a mostly clean start, look for some crumble to develop into mid-morning.

Afternoon Outlook: Mellow WSW onshores for the afternoon. Surf will gradually dip during the back half of the day as the SSW swell tapers off. Still pumping.

Scripps Surf Guide

Scripps Pier, home of the Scripps Institute of Oceanography, can occasionally have more defined sandbars, especially on the south side, than ones found just south at La Jolla Shores. Sandbars tend to get more defined after big swells and/or periods of rain.
