Meanwhile the surf has been rather lackluster (#2). Visibility was 13 miles under partly cloudy skies. Winds were 4 to 8kts out of the south and there was a light tack on the water. The air was a chilly 48.9º and the water was 59.5º, adamantly refusing to jump to 60º. High tide was at 5:09am +4.4' and low tide will at 12:23pm -0.1 for y0our clam digging pleasure. It's a SSW swell pout of 211º at 2.3' and that was about it getting a little more rideable as the tide dropped.
