Forget the Surf Reports; This Is How It Really Was

In front of Restaurants
This is the kind of weather we expect in April.  What is going on here?  This has to be the longest consecutive run of crummy conditions and crappy surf since... (fill in the blank).  And, to add insult to injury, the upwelling has pushed the water temps back down.  Nice.
Saturday was rain and wind, Sunday was WIND and today was not as windy,  but windy enough so that things did not get a chance to settle down; it was messy, very messy.  And big.  A few hardy souls giving it a go, but not many rides and a few got swept many 100's of yards south trying to make it out; more than a few gave up and came back in before making it to what I laughingly refer to as the line up.


The only ones getting anything close to a good ride

Whump!

Foam ball

If the wind stops sometime today, there's a slim chance that tomorrow might, dare I say, be surfable.

Have a good one
Aloha
