Sunday afternoon the much larger W storm swell (270-300+) begins moving in. It will hit mostly up in the Santa Barbara/Ventura area before the sun goes down but LA, OC, and SD will see some increasing wave heights before the end of the day. Expect overhead+ sets at the more exposed areas. Most of the swell will arrive after dark.
Monday the W swell (270-300) peaks. The storm creating this swell is still developing so wave heights aren’t totally set in stone yet…but at this point expect most W facing breaks to have consistent 6-8’ faces with some bigger sets nearing the double-overhead mark. Standout W facing breaks in San Diego, Ventura, and a few other spots in the other regions will have waves hitting 10-12’+ (and bigger at times through the morning). Conditions Forecasts are calling for light/variable winds through Monday morning with NW winds 10-15 knots developing through the afternoon.
Sounds like primo conditions. I'd like to go out, but I'll be working, after work it's dark... Oh well, next time I'll be born rich instead of good looking.
