    Surf Report comments:   
    7:15 am:   Very small surf early on this Tuesday morning.   Wave size 1/2 a foot to 1 foot.   The surface conditions are semi-glassy to glassy with fair overall form.   The wind is light SW.   Checking out local buoy  the ealry wave height measurement is 1.6 feet at 10 seconds   The marine forecast is calling for S then increasing offshore winds ahead, ahadn of a cold front with rian on the way. See the water temperature of 64.9 degrees at The Pier this morning.   And you can see the ocean live by viewing The Surf Station Cam Page here.
     

    7:45 am:    Early morning photos are up and posted and you can see we have very small surf for your Tuesday.    Super small overall with shin to knee high waves trickling in.   The tide is going out which is not good most of the time on small swells like this.  Now once the tide bottoms out around 9 am, turns, and starts pushing in, will we see an incoming tide push?   It could happen as there is a little bit of swell left on the local buoy offshore….
