Going boat diving? Check the NOAA marine forecast to see what's going on out there. From point conception to the farther south islands like the Coronados. 

Sunny and mild? For the TV weatherman, that's pretty much the forecast for almost every day of the year in Southern California, but when you're a California Scuba Diver, you need to get a more complete look at the conditions. Make sure to check the tides and swell reports too so you'll be properly prepared to dive beneath the waves.

Heading out to one of our Channel Islands this weekend? Is it going to be a smooth ride to Catalina Island? Maybe you're thinking of hitting a west facing beach? Check out this easy to read swell report. Oh by the way... just like your SPG, the red zone is bad.

Check out the Pacific storm systems yourself. But don't let it fool you because being a weather-man or weather-woman isn't easy. This link is for the more advanced SCUBA/Weather-person.
