Hurricane Marie has officially exhausted her store of waves and we're back to summer slop. It's looking knee to waist high with sun in the sky. Wind is steady and chop already making an appearance. 2.2ft Low at 9:10, 5.9ft High at 16:50. There is a little long period SW showing on the buoy but not enough to make the average period jump up from 6 seconds. Keep you're eye on it and if it goes up a second or two expect some more juice in the water.

Size and period have dropped off substantially since yesterday. We're looking mostly at waist to chest high shoulders with best waves reaching head high at the peak. It's looking crowded but it's also looking real, real clean. Wind is very light for now and there is little to no surface bump in the lineup. 5.85ft high tide at 3:05 brings with it mushy shore break but it's a beautiful day at the beach so come anytime and wait around until the surf suits your fancy.

Hurricane Marie is still putting out today. We're seeing consistent head high to overhead faces roll through on the low tide this morning. Wind is light, waves are open and heavy. Another good day to KNOW YOUR LIMITS -- I surfed the patch at Bolinas yesterday and it was the funnest session I've had this summer.

WARNING: HIGH ENERGY HURRICANE SWELL DAY # 2 -- ADVANCED/EXPERT SURFERS ONLY
If you can't take 5ft of whitewater on the head without breaking a sweat or second guessing yourself go to another spot. Bolinas is having yet ANOTHER really good day for anyone who isn't comfortable in HEAVY double overhead surf. For those still interested We're looking at more of the same as yesterday with maybe a little extra on the bigger sets of the morning as swell has built in fully at this point. More adrenaline rushes to be had for anyone who didn't get their fill yesterday.

Looking glassy this morning despite the light n' steady onshore breeze. Mostly waist to chest high with the drained tide but expect good sets to go head high + on the incoming tide. KNOW YOUR LIMITS. It felt like a board breaking day yesterday afternoon and today will likely be similar. Most lines look open but are moving really fast. Fun day for your fastest board. 5.6ft high @ 1 PM, 1.75 low @ 6:35 PM

Steady fairly strong onshore breeze. Chopped up and sloppy. It's not looking pretty but there are actually fun waist-chest looking lines showing up. Tide filling in will likely clean it up some but with swell fading some longer lulls between bigger (chest high +) sets.
