Quote Of The Day
.
7:35 am: Early morning photos are up in box #1 and you can see we have some waves breaking on the inside on this Thursday morning. Small overall but there are some knee to thigh high waves, maybe a little bigger on some set waves. It’s semi-glassy early this morning with the light wind early. Some of those thicker 2.6 feet at 10 seconds wave seen on the buoy offshroe are working their way to the beach...
.
12:15 pm: New mid to late morning photos are up in box #2 and you can see some glassy waves around the pier. Small overall with some knee to thigh high glassy waves from the east. THE DREDGE is back up and pumping sand, and the mound is moving eastward, as you can see in the photos. Will it make us a nice sand point break one way or the other? Only times will tell…

Left up from last night.

6:50 pm: New evening photos are up and posted in box #3 and you can see it’s choppy overall The euurf is ont he small side with some knee to thigh high waves . There is possibly a waist high peak. It’s junky and sloppy with onshore winds. Some of the surfers in the photos were ripping and having fun!
And let’s hope this swell holds for the weekend . We will be back in the morning to report what we see.. over and out..
