NW WIND 20 TO 25 KT WITH GUSTS TO 30 KT. WIND WAVES 4 FT...SUBSIDING TO 2 FT AFTER MIDNIGHT. W SWELL 5 FT AT 10 SECONDS.

It wasn't Waikiki Beach off Diamond Head...

It was Short Sands south of Tillamook Head...

There were no girls in bikinis and hula skirts...

There were girls in neoprene and hoods...

Palm trees, papaya and pinapple plants were absent...

Fir trees, cedars and ferns were plentiful...

The sun was out, warming...

The wind offshore, howling...

Waterfall cascading nearby...

Waves small and soft, but fun...

Longboards gliding, trimming...

A good day to Surf in Oregon.
