It's messy. On the larger side in places, but it's hard to tell as there's mostly wash and foam for miles. Kept driving and it did get better, but not that much more surfable. Watch out for gnarly looking accident on 280 N just past the 1 interchange.

Details: Three lanes blocked - I-280 North between Westborough Blvd and Pacifica Exit / CA-1 SB 8:18 AM

Friday 10am - Linda Mar, fair- surfing

One of those "better than it looked" mornings where it's choppy around the edges, but holding up enough for a few zippy rides. Waist high with occasional whomping closeouts in typical lindy style. Kinda fun.

Tuesday 10am - Linda Mar, fair surfing

Long smooth knee-waist high waves this morning. Only a few spots working, plenty of waiting, and best to err on the side of foam, but nice shape and no closeouts. I got in some fun cruising rides. Waves slowed to nothing on the high tide.

Lake Michigan Surf from Josh Tyron: On Tuesday I was able to head out to Holland MI and experience some of the pure energy our great lakes can produce. Beautiful and graceful in Slow Motion. At real speed it made it made you feel small and out of control. Warning: Super slow motion.

While slightly cleaner than a few other spots we checked, this particular breaking wave was still offering up plenty of short period shiftyness. It was a bit more work than our usual haunts, but worth it to snag a few chest and occasional shoulder high waves with a surfable bit of shoulder. The churning inside felt like winter, the disorganized outside was summer for sure.

Monday 11am - Linda Mar, fair- surfing

Much better than I thought the low tide would be. It's small, there are looooooong lulls, but with winds are southerly and things are clean. You're gonna want plenty of foam to cruise the soft thigh-waist high waves and the water's a rather funky brown so you're gonna want to avoid gulping any down. Fun enough for me, the whales took a pass and headed south.

Thursday 10am - Linda Mar, fair surfing

Small and clean this morning with light offshore winds. There are long lulls, but some fun shoulders and plenty of sunshine to soak up. Took my 7'4 out for a practice day and was still able to get a handful I'm happy with. Other folks might prefer more foam to accomodate for the Waist high waves and the soft high tide.
