8:00 am: Early morning photos are up box #1 and you can see we have sizable waves for your Wednesday. The early moring 1st report may have been an under call as there are some large set waves well over chest high at times. Lumpy and bumpy and mixed up with the strong onshore winds. Look for the swell to be strong and powerfull all day today...

Left up from yesterday:
2:15 pm: New afternoon photos are up box #2 and the wind died after the late morning rain so the surf has improved. Not near as choppy, in fact becoming semi-glassy (at report time) now that the sun is out. Some waist high plus waves at times. Sort of soft at report time but the buoy is hanging in there so we could see a bounce back in the swell….

Following small, clean waves last weekend with generally light local wind, Dean says we are in for another extended period of strong onshore winds witch will make for a monstrous-size, howling wind swell for Halloween. How long will the ghoulish conditions last? Check out The Surf Station Surf Forecast: Click here.
