Not quite as messy




But that's not saying a lot. Jumbled up waist to chest high wind swell dominating the line up. Stacking up outside and rolling through to a confused, crumbly situation on the inside. A very light easterly breeze putting a bit of texture on the water. Oh, and the water temp has plunged back down to winter temps so don't put those booties away just yet. 10 guys out.

There's a thick mist...




In the air this morning. All of this relentless wave activity has not only whipped the ocean into a froth, it's produced a rather viscous atmosphere. Getting wet just standing on the bluff!

The swell and ocean is still out of control. Westerly mid period, head high plus waves smacking into a ridiculous wind swell. Very poor conditions and same for the shape. However, the wind has clocked around from the east so there may be some possibilities for this to settle out and give us some decent conditions later on the week. Until then,

Holy Guacamole!




It's WINDY! 8-10 knot SW "breeze" pushing through this morning. Shoulder to head to some overhead stuff. Totally blown out. Sloppy shape, sloppy conditions, sloppy weather. My prediction is that this won't turn around until Wednesday.

Bright and Shiny




The swell has picked up. Right now it's a messy combo of SW ground swell and medium period westerly wind swell. Waist to shoulder with some larger set waves. Shape is sketchy with the inside track offering the best chance; the sets are lined up and closed out. Fair surface conditions with some lump and bump on it that seems to be cleaning up some. About 20 people out mostly on the inside peaks just south of the reef.
