Inspirational Quote of the Day:
"The voice of the sea speaks to the soul." - Kate Chopin
Savory morning as skies start clear and blue and full of sunshine. Temps now up to 65F and a calm ambience prevails. Van camper jamboree with all manner of dripping wetsuit and sliding sleds on makeshift moorings and a scent of bacon in the air. A minor uptick in the NW windswell as the S fades but holds some numbers to study. Morning and evening high tides allow for the most possibilities though the lows are more than adequate over the next few days.
CHANNEL: Marching orders for this locale with a steady stream heading to and fro. A touch more windswell has opened up doors that seemed to be closing last night. Now options ranging from the Groin bar, through the Channel, across to Seadrift and beyond as sliders are up and riding less than celebrated conditions. Dropping tide may shape up the rough edges slightly with the best description being pieces and parts. Explore the region as some areas may be more suitable than others and offer varying qualities in your experience.
PATCH: Overlooked and slightly underwhelmed with the S swell dwindling down. Perfect for the surfer looking for peace and solitude that likely wont last long. Tides never too low or high this day and if consistent knee high surf is to your liking than your day is complete.
