Alton - are you thinking of heading out today. Currently ferry terminal is SW 14g21, but at best last until mid morning. Locust also SW - is this ok?

Locust ETA 8am. Bellingham airport is showing more south so it's good at Locust. Tide is great for you today. I have to leave by 10am to pick up my daughter at YVR. Hope to see you at Locust.

I'll see you there. At the very least I'm overdue for checking the place out.

Mike - if it starts tanking while I'm in transit I'm turning back. I'll send you a text if I turn back.

Locust looks to be tanking (strange because there is still pressure on the west side of the island and JDF), White Rock is lighter and also shouldering off, Ferry Terminal is teasing (NW gusting 21), and Halibut Bank turned on at 5 am (0.4 m @ 3 sec) so it may still deliver a surf/SUP.

Was headed for Locust now thinking Sandy Point ~

Go figure. Locust tanked. Oh well. I'll go to the Trident Sports Warehouse Sale (10am) instead.

Sandy Shores now shouldering off too ~

Gulf Road might be an option on a ~3 m tide if the NW fills in.

6 am report from Halibut Bank is missing wave height and period ~

Gerry terminal, jericho and kits beach sensors are all looking good. I'm going to head to kits first, currently reading 22 knots.
