‼️BREAKING NEWS‼️ Neoprene is BACK on the racks! Run (don’t walk) to Ocean before Colin steals the rest… he’s already taken half the stock.
Purple Billabong boardies and the FCS surf hats are also in store. Colin, sadly, is not for sale… but he is single and ready to chat about neoprene (and feelings?).

Good morning kooks n rippers this is Charlie with your Ocean Surf Shop surf report and forecast for Tuesday, August 19th coming to you from 1640, videos were taken early this morning followed by a super late report.

Erin definitely made her presence known this morning. The swell brought some solid size, with a few heavier sets rolling through. Conditions are a little tricky, lots of closeouts, but if you managed to find the shoulder, it made for a super fun surf. Plenty of energy out there. Hopefully it will clean up a bit with the incoming tide.

Winds are currently 10 mph out of the NE with gusts up to 13 mph. The wind will pick up a bit as we head into the day getting up to 16 mph and gusts up to 20 mph. The wind will switch to the ENE.

We are approaching low tide at 10:59 a.m. followed by a high tide this evening at 5:39 p.m. We will have another low tide after sunset at 11:59 p.m.

The Edisto Buoy is currently reading 10.8 ft at 16 seconds in a SE swell.

Still seeing some solid size out there, just hoping things clean up a bit with the incoming tide. A shorter board is the move today, it’s a bit too steep for a longboard unless you’re feeling confident. Watch out for the current, drift sessions are definitely the call. Conditions look like the will only improve heading into tomorrow.

The homies at NOAA are predicting: “Weak high pressure will build into the region early this week as Hurricane Erin passes well offshore through the middle of the week. The pattern may become more unsettled again late week and into this weekend.”

Water temperatures are sitting at a toasty 84*

It is currently 83* with a high of 86* and should be sunny all day.

Sunrise was at 6:46 a.m. and the sunset will be at 7:59 p.m.

Thanks for tuning in for today’s Ocean Surf Shop surf report and forecast.

kona and i have been getting to know each other the past couple weeks… and let me tell you - he’s VERY annoying. he always wants to play. like always. his favorite game? grabbing onto my tail so i can drag him around (zero stars, would not recommend). we do have some fun in the backyard - he’s a pretty solid digger (not better than me though, let’s be clear). we roll around in the mud together every morning, which mommy does NOT appreciate. he’s also started howling (what even is that? does he think he’s some kind of coyote?) and mommy thinks it’s hilarious. i don’t. also, the guy never stops giving kisses. like in my ears, on my face (even my private parts)… everywhere. chill. and don’t even get me started on food time - he tries to eat MY food like he’s some kind of pig. mommy keeps saying i need to stand up for myself, but i’m just too sweet of a boy. she swears i was the same way when i was his age… but no way in heck was i THIS annoying. i mean seriously? i can’t believe im even letting him on my instagram… but i guess this is my life now. i really relate to this song, being a big brother is hard. and just to clarify - i am a boy. i know im pretty but stop calling me a little girl, hoomans. anyway, welcome to the family kona. i guess you’re kinda cool. #sendhelp #bigbrotherproblems #prettyboynotgirl #lifewithkona
