Not as cold this morning, about 41...... Light N winds today, swell W5-6ft @ 12 sec's, high tide around 10:30a , IB looking "surfable", but junky...... SdN probably the better call this morning, but as the wind might pick up later , and as the tide heads out, might be better elsewhere. Sunday W 6ft @ 17sec's, but N winds picking up to 20+mph..... Mon - Wed W7-8ft with NE winds on monday, SW on Tuesday and NW on Wed......

Took this shot from the deck at the shop......

Just took a drive up.... road is open, surf looked pretty junky, but, I will go up in the morning to see about some waves.....

colder this morning, had to scrape the damn ice....... little bit of morning fog, but I think I will head back to see about another short session later this morning. Yesterday was just plain fun.... hope it will hold up again.... Today W5-6ft @ 12-15sec's, with Light NE winds. Saturday looking about the same, then Sunday, we might get some light rain and the swell is supposed to pick up to W7ft with N winds 25+. Monday W8ft with NE winds 20+, then cleans up on Tuesday to W 6ft with light S winds......

did finally get out...... water was a bit colder, but glassy and waist to chest high fun lefts that went on forever....... only about 10 people out. My other "aged" surfers were complaining of the cold, but I guess with the 5/4 Boz, 5mm xcel boots and 3m xcel gloves.... no hood, I was fine..... maybe I just have some extra padding that they don't!?!?!? Surfed with some fun guys out there today, lots of smiles, and good attitudes........... hope to get more on friday!? mark mekenas mark@cannonbeachsurf.com www.cannonbeachsurf.com

Beautiful out on the beach this morning...... air temp in the high 30's..... W 5-6ft @ 10-12 sec's, with very light S winds..... almost anywhere should be fun..... Friday should pick up a little to W6ft @ 15 sec's with Ne winds 10+mph. Sat. W 6ft with N winds 10+...... might want some protection from the North on those 2 days...... Sunday W9ft with N winds picking up to 15-20mph. Monday NW8ft with NE winds 20+mph.... damn I wish the road to Indian was open!!!

Just back....... stopped by SdN...... about 8 people out....really mushy, way too much water in there.....but, should get pretty good in a couple hours......I will try to get back over..... sun is now out, but still cold.... mid 30's....... this side of the head, not as clean..... but still surfable......

Too early to get shots of the surf, so I put one that I call "bobble head family on vacation in Kauai" ( Drumheller Family, Brook and Cory)...... poor people.... damn.... feel sorry for them.... At any rate, surf looks like it dropped a bit, cold this morning, but warming up again today. I have a dentist appt. early, and am going to see if SdN will be as good as it was yesterday after the "drilling"........ Today, W5ft @ 10 sec's with light E/NE winds this morning. chance of some rain tonight, but Thursday looking like W5ft @ 15 sec's with light NE winds.....Friday W6ft with light NE winds... Saturday W6ft with N winds picking up to 20+..... Sunday NW9ft with N winds 25+ Looks like shorty's will be the call for the weekend....... mark mekenas mark@cannonbeachsurf.com www.cannonbeachsurf.com

got some pictures this morning from 1) Mart Aaron of a famous spot in Pembrokeshire...... damn! 2) and a shot from Mark Patterson in N. Ireland..... Looks like Oregon????? mark mekenas cbsurf@cannonbeachsurf.com www.cannonbeachsurf.com

Not looking as clean as I hoped it would be today, but the swell did drop to W 6-7ft @ 8-10 sec's over here. Light E winds today, had to scrape ice this morning, but the sun is out and should warm up to 60 or so. Looks like today might be fun up at Indian, but alas..... the road is closed....... so.... SdN will probably be the spot of the day.... I was hoping for some Haystack rock time, but as you can see by the pictures, not so good........ Wed., Paloma's Birthday, swell drops to W 5ft @ 10sec's with light NE winds...... probably shorty's...... Thursday W4ft with S/Se winds...... maybe here???? Friday W 7ft with Lt S winds.... SdN Saturday W6ft with NW winds 15-20 mph....... Shorts...... Enjoy the "coronation" today!!! Media event of the year!!!
