Cape Cod Surf Outlook Week of July 13th

Outlook as of July 19th 9:00 am - Chest high today. Nantucket buoy (7:50 am) is showing 3.6' at 9 secs from ESE. Today's wind will be 15-20mph from SW. The water will be cold. High tide is at 1:20 pm. Tomorrow's waves might be a little bigger with a little less wind. There's a low pressure system working it's way up the coast that may give us head high waves on Tuesday and Wednesday.

July 18th 8:30 am Looks like another head high day. Nantucket buoy (7:50 am) is showing 6.2' at 9 secs from SE. Today's wind will be approx 15 from SSW. Low tide at 6:30. The offshore wind will blow away the warm surface water and bring up cold stuff. Depending on how deep you sit in the water a full suit could be the order of the day (it'll be hot out of the water). Bertha's swell fades tomorrow but closer to shore low pressure systems will pick up where she leaves off. Waves will continue for the next week, maybe even getting to head high again by next Wednesday or Thursday.
