Not sure how water temps are doing down in SD but its cooled big time here in Orange County. First 2 weeks in Aug water temps were in around 67-69 degrees. Last weekend went fishing (1 fish!) and water temps were down to 64-65 and that was all last week with it dropping even down to 62-63 reporting today. I hope you guys down south are having better luck, but I sure am not crazy about driving down 2 hours to have better fishing...but then again I might have to. El Nino my ass!

Water temp last week was down 10-15 degrees from the week before. At least from Scripps pier to pt Loma.

Water temps are down here too. We just had a decent swell. What happens is it upwells that deep cold water. Current and wind can help bring that water closer to shore which is what looks like happened. Forecast for the coming week calls for smaller swell and current pushing NW. That along with sunny days should bring the sea surface temps back up as long as the wind cooperates.
