Hello Friends,
Went for a bike ride with the camera…
Wind was light NNW 5-10 kts as of 0900. Swell was out of the NE and was a metre at 15 seconds out at sea. I did not see any obvious sign of 15-second energy though, instead, as the pictures show, it was weak and wind-swelly looking. So, maybe there were bomb sets I missed.
Weather was partly sunny this morning, but there’s a 90% chance of rain by this afternoon.
