Daily Surf Report - 12/19/2013

 
 
NOTE: Construction continues today on the post office roof next door to the shop. The parking lot is occupied with service vehicles but our back door is open.  Code knock is 1 - 2 -1
 
 
 Inspirational crystal quote of the day:
“Whatever I am offered in devotion with a pure heart - a leaf, a flower, fruit, or water - I accept with joy.”- Bhagavad Gita


It is a wonderful Fall morning here at the beach with the temp in at 47F, clear blue skies and full of sunshine.  Soak in some vitamin D today and give those cheeks a rosy glow.  Wind remains off shore and there is still some remaining swell in the water graciously delivering rideable waves today.   Put off your holiday shopping and take a dip.  You still have 6 more days until Christmas.
 

CHANNEL: Mostly NW windswell but it shows size on the buoys and the angle is hitting the Channel.  Incoming tide for a little extra push.  Offshore winds have the deeper bar left spraying off the back and rolling, reeling and peeling towards shore.  Size goes waist high + and fun stuff on your longboard today.  Inner bar Mali-Bo rights like these conditions and occasionally delivers a wave for a shorter board.  Groomed up and clean today and worth putting on a suit.  2 in the water so far.

 
PATCH: Way, way inside at the Snags it walls up then fires towards shore.  It is short, sweet and fast but a bit shallow and rocky.  If you are looking for excitement here - this is your wave.  Otherwise, outside at the meeting rock there are a few waves that are breaking with no takers.  Big boards look like they could work and size is a guess-timate at thigh high +.  Tide peaks in 2 hours and maybe later it will clean up a bit.  Not the best swell angle to make this spot epic.

 
 
PACK IT IN, PACK IT OUT.
