BOB FREEMAN’S WEEKEND SURF REPORT

By Bob Freeman // January 30, 2016

Waves are looking mostly unrideable this morning. Late-morning's lower tide could help make the small waves more rideable by then. Surfers seeking an early morning surf session may want to focus on Cocoa Beach's northernmost beaches for a longboardable wave. — Surf heights are running only in the knee- to thigh-high range with semi-clean surface conditions from a steady northwesterly wind.

SURF REPORT FOR JAN 29-31

Bob Freeman has been surfing Brevard's waves since 1966. — Bob Freeman has been surfing Brevard’s waves since 1966.Waves are not looking very fun this morning. There is plenty of northeasterly groundswell remaining, but onshore winds from passing storms are producing sloppy conditions.

FRIDAY: Surf heights are running only in the knee- to thigh-high range with semi-clean surface conditions from a steady northwesterly wind.

SATURDAY: Saturday’s surf will increase some into the thigh-high range with cleaner conditions early from a lighter northwesterly breeze.

SUNDAY: I believe Sunday’s surf may increase further into the thigh- to waist- high range, but with bumpy conditions from a southeasterly wind.

Cocoa Beach ocean temperatures now average 62 degrees.
