Hold Me


N WIND 5 TO 10 KT WITH GUSTS TO 15 KT. WIND WAVES 2 FT. NW SWELL 10 FT AT 11 SECONDS.
Well...no one actually asked me to hold them.
But I did hear some pessimistic views...
On the immediate future of Surf in Oregon...
Stacked fronts marching in off the Aleutians...
Driving rain, onshore winds and bad angles...
Angry sharks, broken fins and rent wetsuits...
It's a tough and dark time of year here...
Fun summertime surf is supposed to be followed...
By stacked head plus high groundswell...
Groomed to perfection by mild offshore winds...
There is hope on the horizon...
Look!
NE WIND 10 KT...
VEERING TO E WITH GUSTS TO 15 KT IN THE AFTERNOON.
WIND WAVES 1 FOOT.
NW SWELL 12 FT.
Sure it's a forecast...
Sure it's days away...
Sure it could turn to shit...
But you gotta have faith.
