Today

Lully SSW swell tops out. Most of the bay is on the slow side but it'll be clean early.

Dawn to 10am: Small scale surf for the south end of the bay -- generally below waist high. Better breaks around Hermosa northward go chest high with standouts larger at times. A little drained for the dawn patrol, shape improve on the tide push but it'll still be pretty walled outside of spots with some structure.

Afternoon Outlook: Lumpy afternoon with moderate westerly onshores.
