San Francisco County, California Weather & Marine Report
Date and Time: Sunday, August 23, 2026 at 2:51 PM PDT
San Francisco County is experiencing typical summertime coastal conditions today, characterized by mild ambient temperatures and breezy marine winds. Across local coastal zones including Ocean Beach and the San Francisco Marina, high temperatures will peak around 64°F, while overnight lows will settle near 54°F. Westerly winds are blowing steady at 12 to 18 knots with occasional gusts near 22 knots along exposed beaches, creating moderate chop across open waters.
Swell activity along the coast is primarily driven by primary energy from the west-northwest along with a secondary southern component. Nearby NOAA Buoy 46026 reports primary swell arriving from the west-northwest at 290 degrees, measuring 4 to 5 feet at a period of 11 seconds. Secondary swell registered at NOAA Buoy 46012 shows south-southwest energy coming from 200 degrees at 2 feet with a 14-second period, offering consistent and manageable waves for local surfers.
Tide conditions for San Francisco Bay and outer beaches reflect a standard mixed semi-diurnal cycle today. High tide peaked earlier this morning at 4.8 feet at 8:15 AM, followed by a low tide reaching 1.2 feet at 1:40 PM. A secondary modest high tide of 5.3 feet will occur at 7:55 PM, before receding toward a late-night low tide of 0.4 feet at 2:10 AM tomorrow morning.
Looking ahead to tomorrow, coastal conditions will remain stable with morning fog clearing to afternoon sunshine. Temperatures will hold steady in the mid-60s, while winds shift slightly northwest at 10 to 15 knots, and marine swells maintain their current height and duration.
