Saturday, March 30th
Reporter: T. Strange
Surf Report comments:
7:15 am: The waves are similar in size to yesterday at this time. Wave height @ 1-2 feet, occasionally slightly bigger. The larger set waves are a little less consistent today. The surface conditions are semi-glassy to glassy with offshore SW winds early. On our local buoy the early wave height reading is 3.6 feet at 10 seconds, up from yesterdays 3.0 feet at 10 seconds. The marine forecast is calling for increasing S winds today. The water temperature is measured at 64.8 degrees at The Pier this morning. See the ocean live by viewing The Surf Station Cam Page here.
8:15 am: Early morning photos are up and posted and wow o wow the surf looks a little bigger & better than the first dawn patrol look. So I bumped up the surf factor as some of those outside waves have some glassy good sized open faces! Over waist high out there and looks very carve-able. And on the inside there are some fast lines zipping across the inside sandbar. Cool out, but the bright sunshine should warm up the day…
