Daily Surf Report - 3/2/2014

We are closing early today but we will re-open tomorrow at 10AM

Inspirational crystal quote of the day:  
“I have a simple philosophy: Fill what's empty. Empty what's full. Scratch where it itches." - Alice Roosevelt Longworth


Good morning to all of you amphibians of the sea. Now for the news; Oooh... not too sweet out in the brine this 'morn. Lumpy and crappy pop-up brown things that look like they could be waves but end up being drunken sailors on shore leave. People are out there trying to "surf" but people generally have the blind arrogance of their colonizing ancestors and attempt the conquering anyway. If you find yourself driving all the way out here to paddle around in unstable, brown, semi-polluted water then go right ahead. For the rest of you, continue on with plan B as the surf will eventually come... it always does and always will. 
And now here's Bob with the weather; Thanks, Jim. It's 55 degrees with gray skies, on-shore wind, drizzle/rain. back to you.
Now to sports. Take it away, Skip; Okay Bob. Boy, that Japanese pitcher for the Yankees sure has a wicked slider. back to you.
And finally, the traffic update with Kimber; Thanks, Bobby. Light traffic this morning here at the beach... did see a fox on my walk here and the parking lot is almost empty.

 

CHANNEL:  One word; UGLY! Still, six (6) people are trying to do something... I dunno? Surf, perhaps? The best bet is to wait for this on-shore ugliness to subside as the water looks the color of what undoubtedly is floating in it.... poopy.



PATCH:  Terrible. I watched six (6) people for over twenty minutes do nothing but paddle around the rinse cycle desperately looking for surf and only one (1) managed to catch a chunk o' crap and ride it for about thirty yards then it fizzled. Do what you want but I'd wait this out.



PACK IT IN, PACK IT OUT. 
Respect the Beach.
