Vote As Often As You Can Tuesday Surf & Culture Report
Lost Boys & Co...
Here we have the tall and short of it... A bit of a vertical sunset (suitable for making into a fine bookmark) and a long, fast Hermosa right, suitable for tucking into...
Yet another brilliant summer's day!.. 25 miles visibility with clear skies from here to the edge of the earth. Winds are offshore by 4.7kts and the sea surface is smooth with a bit of a short period roll. The air temperature is 62.6° and the water has dropped another degree to 63.9°. Go ahead, tell us you haven't dropped a degree or two... High tide is at 6:58am +5.6' and low tide will be at 1:18pm +0.8'. The buoy is reading a SSW swell out of 200° true at 2.3'. It's about 2' with some 3' outsides if you have a good imagination. Everyone is still talking about tomorrow... Rasta Pete is calling for Rat at 1:30pm. We're thinking he might be ahead of himself?...
Keegan's on Friday for a bit of dancing starting at 7pm. HH at the Buffalo Fire Dept. at 5:30pm.
From SwellWatch:
Today (Tuesday) NW swell is starting to fill into northern and central California and will arrive in SoCal later this afternoon (intermittently), fully filling in Wednesday. High surf advisories are in effect. NW swell lingers Thursday and backs off Friday. A swath of WNW swell is then due Saturday the 6th. We may also see some NW around the 9th-10th, but so far, next week is looking far smaller than what we'll see Wednesday. Condition-wise: offshore winds prevail but mellow, weather on the warm-up, but we are in a radical tidal swing that'll affect not only conditions from hour to hour, but also exacerbate the risk of rip currents as well...
(If there's gonna be some exacerbating, we're for it... Ed.)
There was a screening of John Severson's "Pacific Vibrations" last night at the Arc Light Theatre out there on Rosecrans and Nash. The proceeds benefited the "Jimmy Miller Foundation" and the LA Co. Lifeguard Trust Fund Foundation. The latter is sponsoring Brian Murphy in the Iron Man competition in Australia this year. So we plunked down our $10 and got a free popcorn and drink and proceeded to time travel back to 1970. We had forgotten what an arty, trippy film it was! Our favorite segment is the painting of Rick Griffin's school bus "Motorskill" and their trip to the Ranch, when you could still drive in for free. Lots of psychedelic filmic effects and a pretty heavy environmental, political message. Some of the kids couldn't believe what the smog looked like and all of the oil pumps along PCH in Huntington!
