Good morning!

That's your best bet if you're chasing bigger waves. Water temps are sitting between 54 and 61 degrees, so you might want that wetsuit. Tuesday stays solid at four to seven feet, so the swell's not fading away anytime soon.Moving down the coast, Santa Barbara's southwestern and southeastern shores are keeping it mellow with one to three foot surf both today and tomorrow. Rip current risk is low, so conditions are pretty friendly for all skill levels. Water's hovering around 58 degrees.Over in Ventura County, today brings a moderate rip current risk with two to four foot waves and water temps near 59 degrees. Here's the good news though – that moderates out tomorrow. Tuesday's dropping to a low rip current risk, the surf's backing off to one to three feet, and conditions become noticeably safer for swimmers and surfers alike.Now, the Malibu Coast and Los Angeles County beaches are featuring a moderate rip current risk today, so keep your eyes peeled if you're heading out. Expect two to four foot surf with water temps between 60 and 66 degrees. Tuesday maintains that moderate rip current risk, so stay cautious. The swell direction's shifting from west today to northwest by Tuesday, which could offer some different peak exposures depending on your local breaks.One thing you'll notice across all zones – no thunderstorms are in the forecast, so you can count on consistent conditions.
