Clear blue skies, sunshine and moderately breezy from the north. Sunshine and warm temps predicted through the weekend. Currently 55F and nice. Little combo swell starting to show with rideable waves today. The right equipment will get you waves.
Channel: Tide heading low and ripping out through the Channel. Tough to hold your spot in the lineup but right place and right time gets you fun waves. Rights and lefts to ride. NW wind swell and small south show a bit today. Surf in the waist high range with a bit bigger and better on the long period sets. Some close-out but the drop is fun and if you make the corner the rides are long.
Patch: Kayaks and SUPs for paddling at the moment. Still pretty flat but occasional waves. Scattered peaks about knee high and soft. Try a big log and maybe get lucky. This could be fun later today in the afternoon with water.
