What today means
Estimated faces of 1.3 to 2.2 m, sets up to 2.6 m, on a 13 s WSW swell. Best window is 17:00-21:00, score 6.1. Watch the current and the dark after 20:08.
The swell is from the WSW, 2.0 m at 13 s, at the edge of the good range for Lobos. With that period the size is middling, and the estimated face is 1.3 to 2.2 m. The sources agree (1.9 to 2.1 m), but confidence is medium.
Through the morning and midday a N to NNE onshore wind of 8 to 11 kn messes up the wave. That keeps scores between 2.9 and 3.9. It is raining, and at 03:30 the port reads 13 kn from the NE.
From 17:00 the wind turns NW and drops: 8 kn at 17:00 and 5 kn, nearly calm, at 20:00. The tide rises from 0.5 m to 1.2 m and the score climbs from 4.8 to 6.1, reaching 6.7 at 21:00. But the sun sets at 20:08.
A small NW swell of 0.7 m at 6 s may add some chop. Sizes are estimates from open-water data, not measured at the beach.
