More of yesterdays swell coming in pulses today. KNOW YOUR LIMITS. Looks pretty heavy even with the lower tide this morning and is sure to get fatter as the tide comes in. Fun shoulder to head high + lines coming in this morning with a light light onshore breeze. 5.9ft 11:00 high tide followed by a low of 1.45 @ 16:30. Probably funnest with the low as the bars are formed best on the outside right now.

2014.9.6
WARNING: HEAVY SURF -- My pictures don't do it justice since I rolled up just as the last big set before a lull came through. Sets easily going head and a half + on the bigger ones today so know your limits. Wind is light cross shore and tides coming up to a 5.5ft high at 10:30 followed by a 1.9ft low at 15:40 then 6.8ft high at 21:50

2014.9.5
A trickle of the forecast SW started showing on the buoys early this morning at a 22 sec period. Hopefully it'll fill in with time and bring some consistency. In the mean time we've got a 10 sec period WNW swell with some actual lines showing up in the water this morning despite the high tide. Looking waist to chest high VERY squishy near-shore break ATM likely getting better with the 2.4ft low tide at 14:40. Push to the 6.6ft high at 20:50 will probably show better surf as well.

2014.9.4
Another day with little to no breaking surf. There appears to be a little bit of 10 sec period WNW swell that jumped in consistency yesterday afternoon and may still be around to an extent. It did look like there was more energy out there this morning despite it remaining almost entirely shore break. The waves are small however so it'll be VERY tide dependent weather or not that swell will generate any fun funboard/longboard waves. 4.75ft high at 8:50 followed by a .75ft low at 13:40 then a big 6.4ft high at 19:45. Look for new SW swell showing up small but with a real long period just before dark. We should have an idea at its consistency by tomorrow morning.

2014.9.3
Spent 5 minutes looking at it this morning and didn't see a breaking wave then caught one just as I was about to pull out and leave. VERY low consistency this morning with equally small waves. 8ish o'clock high tide isn't helping things but the 3ft low at 12:30 probably won't lend much help ether. Another high tide at 6:30 will drown any dreams of dinker waves this evening. My suggestion is check OB, or like myself, read a book or do something more productive then wasting any gas to get here in the hopes of a wave.

2014.9.2
More small stuff on tap for today. Higher tide this morning made for few to no breaking waves in the 5 minutes I spent checking it. Overcast with a very light drizzle. Probably a better day to repair any dings you sustained this past weekend than to go surfing.

2014.9.1
Light winds with moderate chop in the water this morning. Little more consistency showing than yesterday with the avg period up near 7 sec on the buoy. Still looking like it's topping out near waist high or a little over and with pretty short rides for anything in the lower volume range in terms of vessels. 2.5ft low @ 10:00, 5.9ft high at 16:35
