CDIP Buoy 036 and Washington coastal observations show waist to chest high waves at exposed west-facing beach breaks, with occasional shoulder high sets on cleaner outer peaks. Sheltered southern corners are knee to waist high and softer. A long-period westerly groundswell keeps peak conditions textured but rideable.
Current conditions are partly cloudy with patchy coastal haze. Air temperature is 58°F, heading to an afternoon high of 63°F. Current wind is out of the Northwest at 8 mph. Winds will remain light North-Northwest through the afternoon before turning light northerly this evening.

Primary swell: WNW at 4 feet with a 9-second period. Secondary swell: SW at 2 feet with a 15-second long period. Surf trend will hold steady through late afternoon, then pick up slightly overnight as northern winds kick up short-period windswell. Tomorrow brings clean NW swell at 4 feet with lingering SW groundswell energy.
