twenty two days into September, six with wind from the northern quadrant.

thats a pretty damm sweet stat.

still no real sign of the mobile high pressure, NE pattern getting established.

Spring is alright Leroy, not best ever but OK. We've had cool showery weather since Thurs, fun waves.

One month down and only two to go.

I can think of one spot in particular on the NB's that will. Strong south swell, light north winds. It will be sizey but mobbed.

There's also a couple this side of the bridge too. One in particular that I'm keeping a close watch on that "may" be be working. Just depends how big the swell hits.

where'd you go?

I drove all the way to fingal only to get there and not have packed my wettie or wet top and I was wearing basketball shorts.

drove back and surfed wobbly wonkers that would fizzle out pretty quickly at the end of the street. fingal looked good though.
