Inspirational Quote of the Day:
"To affect the quality of the day, that is the highest of arts." - Henry David Thoreau


Upwelling occurs when winds push surface water away from the shore and deeper water rises to fill the gap.  The upward movement of this deep, colder water is termed upwelling.  This nutrient-rich upwelled water stimulates the growth and reproduction of primary producers such as phytoplankton.    Measured ocean temps are now down for 49F after a period of windy days and booties may be part of your morning considerations.  We are currently relatively calm with light NE winds and outside temp of 50F.  Patchy skies and high tides merging with swell remainders has the parking thinning while the lineups thicken.  

CHANNEL:  Motion in the ocean about to cause a weekend commotion.  Incoming tide and the extra push it delivers has smoothness in sight and slip slides on one's mind.  Start it left and bend it right will lead to the longest route to grandma's house this morning.  After the peak the drain begins and should enhance shape and attract even more to the shore.  Currently waist high consistency and an advancing cluster paddling over.

PATCH:  Less height but still a long period of interval on the last of the SW swell.  If you can bear the cold toes you should know that the waves come in bunches after a fair period of waiting and contemplation.  Sweet and sassy on the inside speed run and water levels well above the minimum requirements.

Inspirational Quote of the Day:
"The journey is a person in itself; no two are alike." - John Steinbeck


New sensations with old vibrations as solid swells fill in and gain traction.  Wind sheltered and potential to swelter with early temps cracking 56F and full sun above.  Full morning tides not easing back until the early afternoon.  Smoothness and ripples along your visual corridor and the only choice you need to make is where to slide. 

CHANNEL:  Lefts reeling off and peeling along with a right minded bend off into the Mali-BoBo nether-lands as the tide pushes in.  As the tide retreats we should see even better shape with some inside pool pockets offered up for those fishing along.   Size is waist high nearly up to chest on the deeper sets.  Peaking high tide almost swamping it out but worth a look or hard stare for sure.

PATCH:  Say when you get down look to your left.  Say when you get up look to your right.  Figure out the puzzle.  Make sure the pieces fit tight.

Inspirational Quote of the Day:
"Adopt the pace of nature; her secret is patience." - Ralph Waldo Emerson


Haloed in fog we peer through the mist in search of friendly profiles both in and out of the water.  Early expectations run high but present delivery running a bit low.  Budding swells on the near horizon have us ripe with anticipation.  Winds tamped down and heat level diminished yet we start at 52F and should eventually see plenty of sun.  Pull out the bigger log and tune in to the new frequency.

CHANNEL:  Negligible rumblings as the NW swell has not quite filled out its application in entirety.  Early high tide maybe just a tad too much water and now starting to drain and swirl.  Vaporous morning has surfaces burnished smooth and rollers, when they do arrive seek the waist yet fall short. 

PATCH:  The desired destination for many toting logs as the morning tides envelops all.  Shrouded and misty just adds to the mystery and intrigue posed by old faces in old places.  Not quite feeling the SW vibrations and the morning window may soon close as the tide retreats.

Inspirational Quote of the Day:
"All great achievements require time." - Maya Angelou


We begin where we ended with vibrantly clear skies and temps on the bake.  We suffer no winds and release all anxiety with calming walks on the beach.  All swells that come must eventually go and that is our situation currently.  We envision a new pulse in the near future but it is always better to remain in the moment and focus on the known.  For now the last drips trickle in and offer enough stoke to get any day started on the right foot. 

CHANNEL:  With low tide pushed back to the lunch hour the early risers are in luck.  A reformulated sandbar is still finding its legs as it learns how to properly direct wave energy.  Periodically the stars align and waist high lefts appear and roll.  Enough water to stimulate some Mali-Bo exceptions and Seadrift is only a moderate paddle away.  Stay thirsty my friends.

PATCH:  Draining tide doing no favors and putting the texture here and there.  Those benefiting seem to be the SUP brigade and butt-ski tribe as the extra paddling propulsion seems helpful.  Still a few S swell gravitational stragglers to entice any Log Jammer.  Mind the rocks which will be rapidly exposing as the morning develops.

Inspirational Quote of the Day:
"You can't go back and change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending." - C. S. Lewis


Golden silence up above as one can gaze down and take it all in.  There is so much beauty that surrounds and in the daily hustle much gets overlooked.  Stop, close your eyes, open your ears, open your heart, soak in the serenity.  Today begins a warming trend with 57F and clear skies.  Light SE winds and dropping tides already causing ripples and rips.  Still have the moderate NW windswell for Channel enthusiasts and a decent but steep angle S for the Patch purist in all of us.  Lessening water levels means we should all prepare to get small. 

CHANNEL:  Highly populated today with an amorphous crew bobbing and weaving for position.  Draining tide starting to put some unwanted texture on the surface and soon sandbars will be exposed which is not particularly good for surfing.  Afternoon glass off sessions might well be in order.   

PATCH:  The S swell does remain but the angle is a bit vertical to fully impact the situation.  The lone logger may well find inside peepers rolling off with regularity but not size.  Thigh high right handers with no others to share with may seem selfish but I haven't heard anyone complaining so far.

Inspirational Quote of the Day:
"Creativity is intelligence having fun." - Albert Einstein


We embark on a brave and bold new adventure and take our levels up one notch.  As the calendar page turns changes become revealed and like a caterpillar emerging from its chrysalis we seek a metamorphosis.  A clear visage is upon us as the day starts pure and warm.  Early, early risers will benefit from higher tides and better slides.  Though the predominant wave generation comes from a NW windswell there does remain a steep S swell creeping in and peeping the scene. 

CHANNEL:  Getting too low and nearing a no go as the later morning tide drops below sea level.  A body whomping exercise may be in the offering for those needing to strengthen legs and overall constitution.    

PATCH:  With a steeper angle S swell in play there is truly some resolution and apparitions.  Long and languishing rides are in the offering though size remains contained just below waist high.  Dropping tide will soon shut the door until the afternoon return. I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in.

"With the coming spring, I am calm again." - Gustav Mahler


Crystal powers coming in at full force this morning. Bright morning light shines down and the heat is rising. The beach expands to the middle of the sea and the tide is bottoming out. Full islands exposed and good for party goers- not surfers. Bring your sunscreen and your favorite hat. As for the water, tide to fill in by 4pm so Try Wait. 

CHANNEL:  Sand bar exposed and sloppy slosh occurring.   

PATCH:  Some try and some succeed. Dodge and hop around totems and be aware of what is beneath. Knee high at best for now, but will improve as the day moves forward.

Inspirational Quote of the Day:
"Every individual matters.  Every individual has a role to play.  Every individual makes a difference." - Jane Goodall


A variation on a recent theme with blazing sunshine beaming down and temps starting to rise.  Negatively low low tides negatively effecting the seek for stoke and confining efforts to those spots containing deeper or any water.  Mid period NW swell co-mingles with a background S but water levels are lacking early and therefore require a waiting period to resolve.  Currently 54F with light and variable winds.  Glassy ocean and plenty of sand to romp and roam with a pup.  A day full of promise and possibility unlimited.  

CHANNEL:  At this time and tide the answer is no.  Later in the day quite possibly maybe.  Last night a definitive yes.   

PATCH:  The meeting rock stands tall as a spire and takeoff marker for the dedicated throng.  Ambitious settlers angling for knee high rights or calf high lefts at the deepest reaches of the Patch.  Intermittent S swell pulses push the breakers a notch about the patella.

"Until you value yourself, you won't value your time.  Until you value your time, you will not do anything with it." - M. Scott Peck


Beach combers and treasure seekers unite as your tide book shows a climatically low tide for your pleasure.  The game is afoot but only if what you seek lies at the bottom of the now exposed ocean floor.  Two days in a row of perfectly sunny conditions and light ESE winds to spice things up.  I feel heat coming and it starts this morning at 57F.  Still have a hunky NW swell out to sea but water levels are currently below lacking and one must languish until later.   

CHANNEL: 
This ain't no party, this ain't no disco, 
this ain't no fooling around 
No time for dancing, or lovey dovey, 
I ain't got time for that now 


PATCH:  Save for a dynamic duo this space is un-engulfed and devoid of energetic surf.  Large triangular rock ridge protrudes and extends well into the lineup.  A murmur of S swell is out there but unable to show in current conditions. Don't call it a comeback but waiting until the late morning tide arrival is highly recommended.

Inspirational Quote of the Day:
"You never know how strong you are, until being strong is your only choice." - Bob Marley


Supremely sunny and welcoming morning as we break free once again from the rain and welcome spring and all its beauty.  ESE winds and a mixture of lingering swells has the masses out en masse.  Ultimate negative low tide for the dawn cracker crew has things on hold and clamped down tight as less than zero water holds no options. Like all good things waiting for the surf today is no different and as the tide fills in further rejoicing will occur.  For now 57F and pristine weather in which one should bask. 

CHANNEL: Ankle breakers and fist shakers but no money makers in the early bright light of the day.  Too low to go so a Try Wait motto must be employed.  With a NW swell dancing around this precinct will show later.  Seadrift spinners off in the distance are a more than worthy alternative and will get you some paddling strokes along the way. 
 

PATCH:  Visual specks well out past the meeting rock materialize as surfers seeking.  Smoothness and no rudeness but mind ALL the exposed rocks as they are present and toothy. Misplaced breakers of ordinary size and shape are tried and tamed or are they?

Inspirational Quote of the Day:
"You're only given a little spark of madness. You musn't loose it." - Robin Williams


Bleak, dreary and wet; water, ocean, rain; clouds, mist, windshield wipers. All this and more....what a day to be alive! Some may say that they are done with this weather but let us not forget that April showers bring May flowers; besides, it seems the rain is not sticking around to hang all day. Out in the ocean a nay sayer is not found here today. As for the waves scientists have been studying them for so many years and we still don't quite understand them...who's to say? There is a SW swell proposed to build now coming in short amplitude with a long period while a NW may build for more speed but it's still in that go-between. Rocking a 58F tan amidst cloudy skies and a drizzle that is proposed to come and go. We are here, they are there, where are you?

CHANNEL: A few numbers here getting the rock and roll hang of it all. A body surfer, some long boarders and the groin. What a party, don't forget the sunscreen, beach blankets and towels for we're in for it today. Up, down, left and right go far or near just never quit. Carpe diem.

PATCH:  As it is known, wave energy moving through a medium is not actually moving the medium itself. There are shadows of rollers out here but the water itself is not advancing, only the wave energy...unless it is breaking on the sand and only then is it being displaced by a fraction. Never near, some far. Lost in the haze. Alone. Dazed and confused.

Inspirational Quote of the Day:
"Quite simply: the ocean doesn't subscribe to the orderly explanations that we would like it to." - Susan Casey



I am greeted this morning with a parking lot full of cars and a sea of people but this is not the typical surfer morning chaos for this lot seem to be beginners pure and true. There is excitement in the air, smiles to be shared and sunshine about; the temperature welcomes us this morning at 60F and the winds that look strong inland seem to be keeping calm-ish out in the water. Calm waters and a mix of fading NW swell and SW winds could grant us some decent rollers but as the morning continues it seems our hopes may be dashed as the sun is blocked and the winds pick up.

CHANNEL: An abundance of foam boards head over to this area as instructors, intermediates and beginners alike rejoice in the sunshine. Later in the morning this area may present itself but the con may be the high numbers of people....just as in life, it seems to be a give and take.

PATCH:  Bring out the long boards and catch the rollers for they have only just begun. Frequency here as it's a classic patch morning and if you've followed Patch Adams into the endless sea of gratitude you shall never have a bad day in the water.

Inspirational Quote of the Day:
"The only person you are destined to become is the person you decide to be." - Ralph Waldo Emerson



Slowed and sedated with those in the know elated.  Peaking NW swell finding a foothold while a background south keeps all others slip sliding.  Tidal swings and morning bird sings under overcast skies with clearing potential.  Temp of 54F and just a touch of SW winds only causing ripple effects felt for thousands of miles.  The usual suspects and the morning regulars exult in the absence of mayhem.

CHANNEL: Morphing crests heading left and holding form and shimmery shine.  Peace pockets and bottle rockets and maybe a fish to ride if you fancy.  Hail or fail and hold your rail as you duck and tuck or run and turn.  Incoming tide seems to be helping with and extra surge and waist high or better waves are available.

PATCH:  Calf burners and no turners with rollers situated to stand and deliver. Slip sliders for log riders with silken faces both in and out of the water.  Don't bide your time for the time is now.

Inspirational Quote of the Day:
"Some people never go crazy.  What truly horrible lives they must lead." - Charles Bukowski 



Psychosomatic t.v. static and calisthenic micro-management, it's a doozy of a beautiful day out here. I'm talking sunshiny eyeballs and slow jazz playing crab claws. Cute puppies on coat tails and neon pink top sails. If you think life is weird please don't shave your beard.
Crystal champagne clear skies in this salty town with a lil' extra of those salty lumps for all you water bathing ripple ridders. Warm and wonderful out here with three people wearing life jackets for absolutely no reason. High tides this morning adding a proper amount of moisture for those having early meditation in the big blue church. With the smell of love in the air the oceans sending some puckered lips for us to kiss.  (Broken glass on brighton, skip at own risk.)

 

CHANNEL: Little chummy runners messing up my bad day. Only a handful of humanoids and some semi section-y sandbars looking as defined as a dictionary... that's only slightly out of date. Plenty of morning glass and passed gas for everyone so share. As if driving, when turning right, please look left and give way. No bad blood boys and girls and get a little belly high cranker to yourself.

PATCH:  Street cats and beach rats rejoice rocks and lego blocks are submerged. Far outside rollers passing into cruzy inside growers all speckled with old easter peeps. Plant a tree, bring your log and get those toes front and center. Juvenile delinquency will not be tolerated but a well matured delinquent will receive a bag of gold chocolate coins at the shop from 9:45am-10:22pm. 16ft SUP tandem fishing tournament will begin at outside meeting rock tonight. Bring your fun hats for a ankle chaser up to a waist high racer.

Inspirational Quote of the Day:
"The eagle has no fear of adversity.  Be like the eagle and have a fearless spirit of the conquerer!" - Joyce Meyer


Lyrids meteor peaks.  Older NW swell depletes.  New S swell creeps.  All factors are at hand and emphatically beyond our control.  Let free will guide and Jah provide as we decipher the possibilities.  Subtleties become known under overcast skies and no winds to commence the morning.  Temps of 50F are a moderate welcome for bare feet.  High tide pushing forwards and up has the momentum slowed down.  No shortage of vehicles unloading their wares as sliders get ready to post up for the day.

 

CHANNEL: Little eyes spy on the inside a wave rolling through Mali-Bo with the incoming tide.  As it crests this too will become but a memory you will wonder ever existed.  With the NW swell faded one must reconfigure expectations then attempt to meet or exceed.  Knee high.

With the haze of yesterday gone one can begin to focus on important matters at hand.  Our spirits are lifted by the westerly swell fusion that delves to deliver stoke in both localities.  Light E winds for grooming purposes and clear skies filled with sun and prophecies.  Temps start at 44F and will warm gradually to a moderate level.  High tide peaking but not stopping the seeking for those on the hunt for slides.

 

CHANNEL: A level headed approach will yield rewards today with some waves being cleaner than others.  All will provide adequate propulsion and the sandbars seem split on which direction it prefers.  Wave heights ranging from thigh to waist + as the tide tops out and ebbs.  Full of reflective energy from above and kinetic energy below.

PATCH: 
It's hypnotizing 
It sends me to sleep 
No one talks to anyone else 
It's frightening 
Everybody's minds are blank 
Oh - oh hypnotizing

Inspirational Quote of the Day:
"Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better." - Albert Einstein


Deeper meanings reveal themselves in the early sunlight that warms a steaming earth.  Peaking, building and fading swells all coalesce today to offer options in varying degrees.  The sun is winning the weather battle waged last night and the morning temp of 53F is readily rising.  No winds currently and an expanding lineup as the hours pass.

 

CHANNEL: One single solitary surfer seeking serenity surrenders to the source and desiring slides upon a higher tide.  Limited by water levels yet yielding periodically with waves and warbles that appear and retreat almost simultaneously. 

PATCH: A bit too much early water.  A few too many population but here is where the main draw lives.  Silky traces on outside faces and a touch of S swell getting the summer vibe feeling flowing.  Marching up towards waist high and a conglomeration of water craft taking part in the offerings.

Inspirational Quote of the Day:
"When something is important enough, you do it even if the odds are not in your favor." ~ Elon Musk


A nice breeze carrying the salt air greets me this morning as I walk towards the beach promising for a new day. The sun is coming through, warming the air while the wind stays at bay; spring has come it seems. Little SW / NW swell combinations bring hope to us all that today will be the day, the sun stays to play.

 

CHANNEL: Not yet but it seems to hold a whisper of a promise that the waves will come. Let us hope the wind stays away, the clouds drift on and that this area produces some goodies.

PATCH: Long, lean, and not very mean waves are beginning to be brought into view as a handful of surfers enter the water. All equipped with longboards as the morning waves call for it, these guys and girls are in it for good time with our dearest friend.

Inspirational Quote of the Day:
"In a time of universal deceit - telling the truth is a revolutionary act." - George Orwell


Unlike most whom roam this Earth, I have chosen to stick with the childish joy of adventuring in the rain and it seems to me that I am not alone for I am greeted with the sight of fellow surfers this morning - rain or shine we will be there. No wind, light rain, 57F temp, and a small mix of SW swell / fading NW swell...yes, no, maybe so ? A restless feel fills the ocean this morning but it leaves the question - is it just beginning to boil, or is it simmering down? I suggest you walk those steps to the beach, climb the stairs with the rusted rails and take a peak yourself. Enjoy the serenity, the sights and smells; take what you can get.

 

CHANNEL: The ocean lost some weight throughout the early morning with promises of a continual decrease - the channel feels it as the water clears and the surf disappears.

PATCH:  Surfers near and far this morning but, as in life, it seems that those who worked the hardest are getting the best waves. Go the extra mile before the strength of the waves peter-out; push yourself and you may find that the hard work pays off.

Inspirational Quote of the Day:
"As long as there is coffee in the world, how bad can things be?" - Cassandra Clare


Post egg hunt wave search likely yielding better results as we still have NW + SW swell mixtures and no winds or rain at present.  Wet, overcast, grey and dreamy with air temps matching water at 54F.  Not a day for basking in the sun but certainly a day worth looking at the option of some slides and stoke.  

 

CHANNEL: Undefined and unrefined with limited options for long rides but enough bump and roll to lure a pack of 8 into the sea.  Shifted more along towards the boat ramp with aspects and objects weilding watery washings to those venturing to gain.  Still sloppy but not stormy and generally smoothing in the lack of wind.  Thigh high + or better with overall shape being poor.

PATCH:  A scattering and smattering of peaks and population with SUPs and loggers co-mingling easily.  Low tide approaching and starting to both reveal rocks and push waves out farther.  Enough to pique interest and potential unlimited.
