Report

Tuesday 7/22/08 10:00AM- Surf was knee high or smaller until about an hour ago when a few odd thigh high waves began rolling in and winds were already NNE at 15-20mph from the overhand sweep of the storm.

Water temp at 85 degrees Tides were High 7:10am 1.22ft Low 1:34pm 0.73ft High 5:50pm 0.90ft

The buoys off Galveston & Baffin may be starting to show signs of life... they've been at only 2ft until 9am when they hit 3ft... just now 10am the readings were 3 1/2  & 4ft, so we might see some waist high and growing swell in the next couple hours. The NNE winds will likely blow pretty hard thru this evening and the surf should get alot bigger but wind conditions could be a problem. If the current increases, shelter by the jetties will most likely be the call ie.: Port.A, Fish Pass and S.Packery. (unless a good drift session looks feasible, it's a wait and see game today!)

Mon.7/21/08.10:00AM - Just like yesterday, the surf is knee high but cleaner and more lined up this morning with very light SE winds 5-10mph. But the wind supposed to pick up mid-day ESE 10-15 gust 20mph. Water temp 84 degrees and tides are High 7:06am 1.33ft Low 1:56pm 0.94ft High 3:52pm 0.96ft Low 11:27pm -0.02ft

+++Onshore NE winds will start to pick up and surf will definitely build thru the day tomorrow ahead of Tropical Storm Dolly which could possibly become a hurricane between now and wednesday, so be prepared for anything... the current forecast track has it pointing straight for S.Padre but we know how accurate these forecast tracks are until the last minute so keep a close eye and stay tuned for tropical updates in case of a hurricane coming OUR way in the next 24-48hrs.+++

Make sure your boards ready in case of any good swell from Dolly... good leash and leash string, new FCS or FUTURES fins,  plenty of wax, sunscreen or rashguards... we are stocked with over 200 boards and heaps of accessories!

Sun.7/20/08.9:00AM- Surf is knee high or less still with light SE winds this morning at 5-10mph but will probably pick up to SE 10-15mph gust 20 midday. Does'nt look like any change in the surf  conditions for today but something's brewing in the Carribean (see below). Water temp at 84 degrees and tides are High 7:03am 1.44ft Low 10:53pm -0.25ft

 +++ Tropical Disturbance 24 has been upgraded this morning to Tropical Storm Dolly. We'll have to watch and see after it crosses the Yucatan into the Gulf or Bay of Campeche wether it remains a tropical storm or intensifies, either way we could start to see associated swell/windswell from tuesday onward. Right now it's still possibly tracking our direction but looks more likely to go south into mexico. STAY TUNED FOR FURTHER DEVELOPMENTS+++
