Inspirational crystal quote of the day:  

"Adopt the pace of nature: her secret is patience.”  - Ralph Waldo Emerson

Calm and chill with coastal overcast and light fog this morning.  Humidity still up and temp is 61F.  Sunshine predicted and should be out by noon-ish.  Swell is still here and cleaned up and leaned up a bit.  Smooth, glassy, user-friendly surf today with still the juice that let's us know Fall is coming.  Water remains tropically warm so get on it today as it won't last forever.  

CHANNEL:  Consistent lefts off the Groin bar running waist high + and holding shape and form.  Logg-able / egg-able / fish-able / paipo-able surf today that is smooth and ready for ripping.  Incoming tide still pushing up and giving plenty of water to work with.  Deeper Channel lefts and over towards Seadrift still delivering as well but not as clean as the Groin.  Still plenty to go around and the lineup is growing at the moment.  No wind and good vibrations.



PATCH:  Still multi-peaked and performing well.  Inside rights are waist high or better and with lots of water ride-able all the way to the sand.  Performance inside wave suitable for all boards this morning.  Well outside and journeying towards Green-Afrika there are lots of smooth waves of varying sizes and directions.  Generally speaking waist to shoulder high and relatively consistent.  High tide late morning may swamp it out but surf should hold through the day and into tomorrow at least.  Surfers and SUPpers on it now and more on the way.

Inspirational crystal quote of the day:  

"In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks."  John Muir

Balmy at 65F and some weather in town as well.  Swell grows with stormy activity and winds blow offshore / sideshore this morning.  Churning waters, swirling waters but still plenty of size and juice for surfing today.  Prepare to actually duck-dive this morning as waves are coming in all directions and in all shapes and sizes as well.  Not clean but plenty out there for surfboard riding adventures today.  Not for amateurs and know your own limits as well.  

CHANNEL:  Chest to head high surf off the Groin pole and over in the Channel proper.  Lots of moving water and shifting peaks to navigate but rideable on the right waves.  Size and energy today and shortboardable.  Not too clean but worth paddling out for and getting a few today.  4-6 surfers clustered at the Groin now with more suiting up.  Depending on wind and weather could clean up into the afternoon.



PATCH:  Multiple wave spots in the Patch this morning.  Spread out and smoother than the Channel but not really organized.  Storm activity has things kicked up a few notches and S swell continues to grow.  Most boards will work here today and size is waist the shoulder high or better.  About 12 in the water now and spread out all over the area.

 PACK IT IN. PACK IT OUT.

The overcast has not dampened the south swell this morning. The good stuff in in town so come get it.  Seeing is believing. Today should shape up to be one of those days that we talk about for the rest of the year. Current outside temp is 65F. Yesterday temp topped out at 83F with the surf just improving as the day rolled along. Fall is upon our little piece of heaven.

CHANNEL: Waist to head high waves with the occasional slight over head rolling through the middle channel to the groin pole. Beautiful smooth water this morning as the sun works to break through the marine layer. Size should improve throughout the day.


PATCH: The patch is going off this morning. Chest high to over head. Smooth consistent sets rolling in . Long boards short boards and SUPers out today. Everybody getting rides with waves to spare.The spot to be this morning.

Well people, lake Bolinas is nice and glassy this morning with very little rolling in. More of a day to sit and meditate on the hope of a swell. Hopefully the conditions pick up with the changing tide as did yesterday afternoon. Weather temp this morning is 57f with a slight cloud cover over our little patch of heaven. Expected to heat up later today so bring your shorts and sun glasses to the beach today. Expect surf later in the week as another hurricane is building off of Baja.



CHANNEL: Small with the vary occasional knee high left in front of the groin pole. Not much in the middle channel and over in the sea drift side. Keep your fingers crossed for improvement later today.


PATCH: Boy oh boy. Whole lot of nothing going on in the patch. A few people out soaking with the occasional ankle glider rolling through. Hope is the word of the day.

The ocean couldn't grace us with glassier conditions this morning, nor could it grace us with any swell. The horizon is a spectacle to behold as it is crystal clear and stretches as far as the eye can see, almost clear enough to see the Farallons. High cloud bank is holding in the cooler air as it is 60F as of now, but bound to heat up as the sun is already trying its best to break through. As for the surf, it is lake Bolinas out there with occasional waves in the ankle range coming through. Hopefully later today we can expect improvement with a different tide. If today isn't to your liking, stay tuned later this week as another hurricane is forming down off Baja and should be making swell push on up here in the midweek.

CHANNEL: Smallest of small ankle high sets rolling through infrequently in front of the groin pole. Not much in the middle channel or over on Seadrift. Keep your fingers crossed for a better tide and some more push later today.

PATCH:  Not a ripple as the tide is starting to go back out to a moderate high Low tide. Occasional lump rolls through that may or may not break on its way to the inside. Great spot to meditate and channel your inner peace this morning.

Inspirational crystal quote of the day:  
"In order to understand the world, one has to turn away from it on occasion.” -Albert Camus


Glassy and calm.  Crystalline clear with views to the razor sharp horizon.  Unblemished by a ripple or undulation.  Get too close and fall off the edge of humanity.  Flat as far as the eyes can see.  Lowering tide and soft swell has it on government shutdown for surfing exploits at the moment.  Buoys show meager NW windswell and fading S swell that has given us a few waves during the day but this morning NOT.  Temp is 61F with coastal overcast and no wind.  Sun will appear and shine brightly soon and the day will be beautiful.  Exceed you expectations in other pursuits today and hope for better surfing conditions in the near future.  


CHANNEL:  Only the small NW windswell to generate surf this morning and what it is offering up is less than knee high and choppy lefts off the groin bar.  1 SUP on it doing whatever SUPs do on flat days.  Possibly later today on the incoming tide push we might see something a little more recognizable as a surfing wave but now for the desperadoes and weekend warriors only.  Perfect conditions for beginners!!  


PATCH:  Seamlessly flat without a bump or lump to gaze upon.  Long, lonely lulls from which to contemplate the meaning of life and wait for the ocean to gurgle up a rideable wave.  Get out there and make it happen.  Conjure up the spirits beneath and ask for something more.  Give back two-fold and you may be rewarded now.  No takers and set waves detonate at ankle high.
