High Tide 4.9 ft ~ 1:48 pm
Low Tide 0.1 ft ~ 9:33 pm

Things are pretty stirred up out there today. Viz is sitting around 10–15 ft across SD, with LJ Shores being one of the few spots showing some decent clarity over the last couple days. Even there, though, you can still feel the swell moving through.

The tide is pushing in until early afternoon which could help bring some cleaner water, but moderate swell is keeping things moving around quite a bit. Expect surge around more exposed areas, along with plenty of surface chop from west wind around 15–20 kts.

Water quality advisories have also been issued following the recent rain, so be sure to check conditions before getting in.

Not the best day for diving with the swell, wind, and recent runoff. Hopefully we'll see things settle down and get some cleaner water back this coming week.
