Jan 2010 Winter Storm

Looks like low or possibly slack tide when this was taken. I wouldn't count on it being this calm on exit.

The rip current was also quite strong in the surf zone on the wall-side on Saturday, and I can't imagine it's getting better right now. I saw some students who were definitely struggling getting in and out.

We had no trouble in doubs on Sat & Sun if you timed the swell, but I did see some OW students struggling.

I think I would much rather be diving last Sat/Sun than this Mon/Tues

Yeah, I took that one at around 4pm so it was almost low tide. I got other pics showing the waves breaking. It probably would have been divable but wouldn't have been a enjoyable dive. I'm sure the surge would have made it unfun amongst other things.

My camera sucks compared to you photog's, but here are some pictures of Lovers from today 1-19-10 at 10:50 a.m.

They aren't bad at all!

Looks like it hasn't let up today. Is that another crazy surfer attempting to catch some waves?

See, if I had a good camera, you could clearly tell that, yes, that is another crazy surfer attempting to catch some waves...

Did you catch a glimpse of BW today?

They told the Sanctuary people that busted them that they wanted
to raise it out of the sand so people could see it better.

Thanks.
