Thursday Surf Report: Fun at the Start!

Get on it sooner than later!!

Good Thursday morning surfers, I'm Surf Junkie Jeff with your San Clemente Patch surf report.  Well, it looks pretty fun from the start, with a modest amount of action, but don't be surprised if things take a turn for the worse sooner than later, due to this approaching storm!

It's mostly clean early on, with some spots seeing a little texture on the water.  As fast as the surf goes ... we've got a combination of energy out there.  There's some building south and southwest swells and some smaller west-northwest energy.

That recipe is offering some fast sectiony lines, with plenty of good wedgy corners.  Most spots in San Clemente are running about waist- to shoulder-high, with the south facing focal points pulling head-high waves, with a few plus sets.

At 6:22 this morning the tide dropped to a 0.2 low, which will have some spots in need of water early to mid-morning.  The tide then climbs up to a 3.1 high at 12:45 this afternoon.

If you're going to grab a session, you'll want to wear a 3/2 fullsuit, with the water temperature averaging between 57 and 59 degrees.  Good luck out there!!
