Today

Easing E swell with clean fun chest+ high waves still midday. S winds add side texture later.

Midday: Easing but still fun surf midday. Mostly chest high, with some larger sets for the better breaks. Conditions are clean with light SW winds at lunch, but it seems like stronger S/SSW winds will develop any minute. Still worthwhile surf, but maybe grab a floatier board as it is easing.
