HURRICANE WATCH 11-17-13
Satellite imagery depicts a broad area of low pressure west-southwest of Manzanillo, Mexico, has weakened from earlier on Saturday. Tropical development from this area of disturbed weather is no longer anticipated, but heavier rain and thunderstorms will continue to affect some portions of southwestern Mexico into Saturday night.
Elsewhere across the basin, no tropical development is expected.

Monday morning is looking pretty small with waist high plus leftovers on the right tide. Not much to sink your teeth into but if you have enough foam you may be able to sneak in a couple waves before, or after, the tide kills it.
