Jumbled up storm surf. Hard to tell exactly how big it is; my best guess is 6-8 feet. A lively sideshore SW wind is blowing the tops off the waves in the surf zone and kicking up whitecaps outside. Tide is very close to its 6.4 foot zenith; will begin to ebb in earnest around 11:30am and reach a -1.1 low around 2:30pm. Rain is moving in and looks to be 1-2 hours away. No one out.

Glassy conditions. Funky waves. Chest to shoulder high; backing off; breaking close in; medium to short period stuff. Sets are going head high and then some but those are walled up and creased with a tendency to close out. Smallest at the reef, larger both north and south (20th and 8th street respectively). Tide is ebbing but it's only 2 hours off a 5.8 high. Look for max ebb around 9:30am then a -0.1 low at 1pm. About 8 people out.

Lots of surf. Lots of walled up closed out surf. Chest to head high with plus sets. Fair to poor shape. Smooth sea surface conditions with a sideshore NNE breeze. Tide is on its way out with a low tide of 0.4 feet showing up at noon. The surf PE groms are out in force (20+).

A bit smaller but basically the same lined up, closed out west swell. Waist to chest high with some head high sets. Smooth sea surface, no wind, and a heavy wet fog blanket. Tide is ebbing; about 2 hours from a 1.5 low. Max flow begins at 1:45pm resulting in a 2.8 high tide at 4:30pm. It looks like there's one, possibly two people out.
