FAIR TO GOOD CONDITIONS

Hey, this is Schaler with the report for Wednesday afternoon

PM REGIONAL OVERVIEW: Sunny skies, light winds, and semi-mostly clean surf are on offer this afternoon as WNW-NW swell continues to fill in a bit further and some small-scale SW energy mixes in. Most breaks continue in the shoulder-head+ zone, as stadout spots are pulling in 2-3'+ overhead sets. Definitely worth a look.

This morning's dawn patrol: Solid, clean lines continues this morning in the head high to well-overhead zone. Plenty of corners to be had out there this morning, looking more lined-up through the inside.

WEATHER:

Mostly sunny with light winds.
