Surf Report comments:
.
8:15 am: Early morning photos are up and posted in box #1 and you can see we have more size than yesterday. It’s choppy and mixed up this morning with rapidly changing conditions at the beach. The rain should blow out of here at some point and eventually the onshore winds will shift offshore. So later would should get a clean up to these messy conditions. Right now, wave size is hard to tell with no one out, but based on the buoy readings offshore it should be at least waist to chest high. The current may pick up from the south
