Inspirational Quote of the Day:
"I can live for two months on a good compliment." - Mark Twain 

 

As the storm passes though the high winds die as the water becomes still. With a new south swell, water being 58 deg and it is a brisk 50 deg this morning. Couple more days without the high winds and we'll be back on track with nice sets



CHANNEL: Winds die down with a chance of rain in the afternoon as strong sets roll in calm and small. The matter of having the right board is a factor in today's surf. 



PATCH: As high tides rolls in the waves begin to break with a crispy face enjoying the nice calm day.

Inspirational Quote of the Day:
"You exist in only what you do" - Federico Fellini


The rain begins to fall with deeper meaning as the wind picks up, blowing in your face with the downpour washing away the tears. Water temp is 59 deg, and 58 deg outside with a chance of thunder in the afternoon. Sloppy choppy sloppy with hazards.
 


CHANNEL: Wind hacked waves today as the gusts pick up to 15 to 20 mph in the am. Go out for a nice brunch with the family to warm your heart and spirits.
 

PATCH: Go on a date. Then try wait.

Inspirational Quote of the Day:
"
It is horrifying that we have to fight our own government to save the environment." - Ansel Adams


What was once dry now becomes wet as morning scattered rain begins to fall in earnest.  SE winds are knocking the hustle and temperate temps of 59F are upon us.  A bit drab and dreary as stoke options become limited again.  Another strong NW swell begins to unfurl and wake with full expansion during the evening.  Currently occupying time with raccoon bowling and deer dodging while we wait out the current weather system.


CHANNEL: Wind hacked helpings of closeout conundrums defying most but not all players of the game.  Hold tight to your loved ones lest they blow free from your grasp while descending the boat ramp funnel chunnel. 


PATCH: No soup for you!

Inspirational Quote of the Day:
"
You gots to call the green man so I can get mine and you get yours" - Amy Winehouse


Broken branches and avalanches line the wet roads this morning as the storm continues. Some wind remains and will possibly pick up later
. For now, rain is falling on all the empty parking spaces and long faces that wish for better but get none. If the rain decides to ease up, it won't be soon.


CHANNEL:
Saucy ribs for lunch.


PATCH:
Sloppy Joes for dinner.

Inspirational Quote of the Day:
"
There is no sincerer love than the love of food." - George Bernard Shaw


Slippery roads and barking toads are on our rout. Unlike yesterday, we are back to gloomy and damp. The day is dark, beautiful, wet, and not too chilly at 59F. Mist is falling and more moisture is coming. Rain is expected as well as a storm to follow in the later hours of the evening. 




CHANNEL:
A single bar breaks along the entire beach but it is not something to test. Mushy and not so clean. Eat some breakfast instead.




PATCH:
Don't know why
There's no sun up in the sky
Stormy weather

Daily Surf Report - 10/26/2016


Inspirational Quote of the Day:
"Don't ever take a fence down until you know why it was put up." - Robert Frost



Calming trend just around the bend as winds head slack and lightly swirl and shimmy atop ocean surfaces.  No rain yet today and temp of 57F with sunshine on the forecast and our minds.  Much west in the current swells du jour thereby enhancing possibilities and potential probabilities.  Still a grace period is needed to allow for calm conditions to return.  




CHANNEL:
Wishy washy with wall backlash and ramp splash as the usual suspects dive in.  Consistently confused and conflicted peaks are the final destination here this morning.  Size has diminished though shape and quality lags far behind. 




PATCH:
All I ever do is reminisce
I guess it's too austere, I just wanna disappear
And come back when the joint starts to swing
How did it come to this?
This is ridiculous!
