Hopefully you were able to go for a surf yesterday morning, because local breaks were showing some decent size and even some offshore wind early in the day. The wind quickly turned onshore.
The size from yesterday's NW windswell has all but disappeared. We're left with piddly 1-3 footers with very short wavelengths at most spots.
Winds are very light, currently coming from SE, but will likely switch direction by late morning.
