Tuesday, March 26th
Reporter: T. Strange
Surf Report comments:
7:30 am: Still some sizable surf for your Tuesday, although it is a little smaller than yesterday. The wave height is 2-3 feet with an occasional slightly larger set wave. It’s semi-choppy to choppy with onshore E winds at 9-10 knots measured at the pier early this morning. On our local buoy the early wave height reading is 5.6 feet at 11 seconds changed from yesterdays 7.2 feet at 11 seconds. The marine forecast is calling for SE winds today. The water temperature is measured at 65 degrees at The Pier this morning. See the ocean live by viewing The Surf Station Cam Page here.
8:00 am: Early morning photos are up and posted and you can see we still have some size for your Tuesday. A little smaller overall, with some waist to chest high waves. There could be some shoulder high peaks in some drops. Mushy on the outside as we approach the higher tide. The swell may have dropped enough that it wont break on the far outside at the full high tide. Onshore winds are in the forecast today, so expect somewhat choppy conditions….
