Winter wants to do it&#8217;s thing but the Atlantic is currently being bullied by strong high pressure. This is diverting most of the winds and resulting swell away from the Caribbean and pushing it more towards Europe. December is officially the windiest month of the year for Puerto Rico but we normally see more northerly fetches set up. The high pressure isn&#8217;t allowing for the development of northerly fetch on the backside of the cold-fronts currently pulling off the states. As a result we will continue to only see marginal background swell through the forecast period. After a week more of this pattern we will be due for a change so I wouldn&#8217;t be surprised to see next week go off. As for this week, we should continue to see a small pulse in the waist to chest high range through tomorrow before the rest of the week goes small to flat. Surf lessons will have the time of their lives this week since it will be small and mellow. Saturday or Sunday might see a little bump up in the surf so it&#8217;s worth checking back to see what will happen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Surf in Rincon blocked by high pressure.
