To Competitors and Media;
Just a quick update on the swell for next week:
Unfortunately, the storm is not looking as strong as it was earlier this week. Keep in mind it has still yet to happen (it will actually pull together over the weekend), but right now it appears that it will offer surf below the size threshold set for the event with face heights likely in the 15'-20' range on Wednesday the 15th.
I'll continue to monitor this storm as it actually evolves over the weekend and will send at least one final update then.
