Daily Surf Report - 1/3/2014

 

Inspirational crystal quote of the day:
“Whatever you can do or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it.” - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe


Day 3 of 2014 and maybe the nicest day of the year - so far.  Crisp and cool but sunny and clear morning.  Very light offshore winds just kissing the tops of waves.  Sunrise over the Marin hills was fiery and fierce.  Temp now is 44F - later it will be more and possibly into the 60s.  It is a beach day in full force.  Tides still climbing high and swinging low for a few more days so surf conditions and beach access will vary greatly throughout the day.  Point your crystal to the West and let the magic be your guide today.


CHANNEL:  Out with the old NW swell but stay tuned as a new one will start to fill in later today.  Tide is medium now and still filling in.  Will be fat and full at noon to shut things down.  A few fun rights happening over at Seadrift with pop up peaks in the waist to almost chest high size that give false hopes and fun rides.  Channel lefts holding up a bit cleaner today and size ranges from thigh to just below waist.  Big longboards are just the ticket and the 8 in the water all have smiles and sunshine on their faces this morning.  If you are not working stop by the beach and ride a few waves to start the new year off on a good note.

 
PATCH: Flat with occasional non-breaking bumps.  Incoming tide will keep it quiet until the next dose of swell kicks in.  Paddleboards and kayaks rejoice as the water is calm and smooth.  Emptiness prevails in the lineup.
 
 

 
PACK IT IN, PACK IT OUT.
