It’s spring so not a lot of standout surf out there. But the spots inside the golden gate love garbage wind swell, so standout conditions might be found in the city early in the week.

Smaller surf in the upcoming weeks, but in the week ahead San Clemente will still be the place to be, along with Malibu.

Further out in the forecast the beaches in Aptos may come together. These are fickle spots, so take this prediction with a grain of salt.

There is a south swell brewing.

San Clemente is your best bet for standout surf this week. Or I would head to Ventura.

What the heck is that!? That's quite a ways out in the forecast so I wouldn't take it too seriously. NOAA is forecasting 10 foot at 11 seconds straight up from the south. 25+ foot waves?

The findings so far have been one stunning development after another. A preliminary sonar-mapping effort led by the Scripps Institution of Oceanography identified at least 70,000 debris-like objects on the seafloor. https://t.co/2OKSfGNubK
