    Surf Report comments:   
    7:10 am:   Waves today are starting out 1 to occasionally up to 2 feet.   The surface conditions are semi-glassy to glassy.   The wind is SSE to s @ 6-8 knots early with the marine forecast calling for the wind to increase SE at 10-15 knots.   Checking out local buoy the early wave height measurement is 2.6 feet @ 9 seconds changed from yesterdays 2.3 feet at 14 seconds.  See the water temperature of 68 degrees at The Pier this morning.  And you can see the ocean live by viewing The Surf Station Cam Page here.

     

    7:45 am:  Early morning photos are posted and you can see we have waves for your Tuesday.    Small overall but there are some knee to thigh high semi-glassy waves to be found.  Is ther a waist high set wavbe?   We will see as the tide pushes in…
