About this listen
We're looking at a high surf advisory blasting through Friday with massive wave heights that'll make your adrenaline spike. Malibu and LA County beaches are expecting 5 to 8 feet today, ramping up to 6 to 10 feet by Wednesday. But hold onto your boards - Ventura County's gonna see some monster waves, with west-facing beaches potentially hitting 8 to 12 feet, and local sets pushing an insane 15 feet!
The real headline? Rip currents are cranked to HIGH risk. Translation: these waters are NOT messing around. Life-threatening currents are likely, so even experienced ocean warriors need to stay sharp.
Water temperatures are hovering around a chilly 59 to 63 degrees - wetsuit weather for sure. Swells are mixing west and south, creating complex and challenging conditions. San Luis Obispo is forecasting truly epic surf, with heights building from 8 to 12 feet today and potentially reaching 10 to 15 feet by Wednesday.
Santa Barbara's beaches will see more modest but still impressive 3 to 5 foot waves, with a slight thunderstorm chance adding extra spice to the maritime mix.
Tide schedule highlights include morning highs around 5.6 to 5.8 feet and afternoon lows dipping below zero. Timing is everything when you're navigating these powerful breaks.
Bottom line: Respect the ocean, know your limits, and maybe today's a good day to watch from the beach. Stay safe, stay stoked!
