W O N K Y T O W N

The sun is back, the offshore winds are blowing and Bondeye was 3-4 foot this morning. That combo normally means its cranking…but it wasn’t…really. Plenty of wonkiness out there in random peaks. Guess that is legacy of yesterday’s onshore agitation. It’s cold, 8 – 18. Tomorrow looks fun, dead south swell. Back to an east […]

It’s not often you see the ocean so subdued… It’s the calm before the storm. Today waves barely broke. If they did dribble in they were merely kneecappers or waistline huggers + very, very weak. After 4 days of sunshine and warmer temps a south storm will arrive tomorrow washing out the majority of this […]
