Wind-swell energy fades - onshore wind picks up in the afternoon

Dawn-to-Midday: small, weak wind-swell surf as the tide drops back off high as good as the surf will look today. Standout spots just about nudging waist-high early this morning, 1-2ft for a few hours before the tide gets too low. Light onshore wind.

Afternoon Outlook: gusty W wind on the pushing tide this afternoon/evening. 1-2ft wind-chop not pretty but will get novices moving.
