May 2024 South Swell

May 15th 2024… 5am DP Wednesday WFL Wave WX Headlines- Classic SW Trough/Southern Gulf Waves Today….

About this pic- This is Mo Lelii surfing. I’m shooting from a small pier. This trough was in the late 00’s and I know it was 15-20knts in flow. This tide was incoming to high bc this spot is almost never rideable at low tide and the low tide would def kill this little wave. Recently I hear this wave is even more rare so… So it was just a couple hour wave window in the mid summer and me and Mo and a few others were able to enjoy this trough surf.
Conditions today? Full report below, thanks for checking in…

Wednesday 5/15 5am WFL Wave Report and WX Discussion: Inside buoy is 4ft@7seconds. Local winds are 10-15 plus onshore south and SW. Expect choppy conditions but some fun surf in the waist high range at good south swell spots. At report time, a band of showers is trying to move into Pinellas and Pasco County. The strongest gradient seems to be passing and the waves may drop after today but lighter winds are the call for tomorrow and continued south lines so keep an eye on your fave south spot tomorrow am, just in case it cleans up. Friday looks small but southy spot may have a wave, probs… Saturday the gradient comes back with a vengeance with south waves all weekend. Sunday has good south swell but with onshore winds. LMK how it is in the comments. We have a small swell down here but I’ll try and update after lunch, gracias y que pasan buen dia con muchas olas!
