One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 6.6 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 6.6 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 1 mph W · gusts 5
Offshore (3.8 mi SE)Offshore 8 mph NE · gusts 11

Cross-onshore wind. The coast faces southwest and the wind comes in from the sea at an angle: a bit more surf at the shore and drift along the coast, toward land.

Satellite (yesterday) 73.4 °F measured 0.6 mi away

The satellite measured 2.7 °F less yesterday than the model gives now: the water is probably colder than the forecast says.

Water temperature changes how fish behave: in very cold or very warm water they feed less. The water warms over the next few days: about 78.7 °F by Tuesday 3.

Water warmer than normal for late October (+2.4 °F).

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 12:26–2:26 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 12:57–2:57 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 6:20–7:20 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 8:37–9:37 pm Minor · moonrise · medium activity

According to solunar theory, fish feed more when the moon passes overhead or underfoot (major periods, about 2 h) and when it rises or sets (minor periods, 1 h). It works best around new and full moon.
