For Wednesday morning we’ll be left with dying, waist high remnant wind swell out of the NW.

To the naked eye the water in the South Bay looked like Willy Wonka’s chocolate river, but I’m sure there was nothing sweet about the taste. All of that wind and rain has undoubtedly compromised the purity of our beloved Ocean so be sure to use your ear plugs if you do chose to surf today or tomorrow!
