Another day of change in a season of many.  Rain has begun falling again though not torrential and surprisingly calm winds.  The roads remain strewn with debris and creeks are swollen to the point of overflow.  Topsy turvy in almost all aspects.  Take stock of what you have and hold it close and dear as a few more dark days are on the horizon.  47F and wet outside.  Large NW swell and a heady S windswell are in play.  All together too much water with the morning high tide so swamped out and burly.  Any calming trend should provide ample energy to get your groove on - but not now.   


CHANNEL: No winds but storm driven and high tide inundation has it more than sloppy and slappy.  Not sure the sandbars have even settled and reformed but current observations show only slight promise of shaped waves.  

 

PATCH: Turbulent and tormented by the most recent storm bout.  Not reacting favorably to the morning configuration.
