Long Branch
Today's surf is marked by 2.3ft waves with a choppy, side-textured face due to cross-shore winds at 6mph. The tide stands low and incoming, aligning well with the preferred low-mid range but still causing an uneven profile across the jetties. Swell direction from the south offers some promise but is undermined by the short period of 4 seconds, leading to gutless wave shapes.
