Looks like we will be getting some swell on the west coast for Christmas according to Swell Magnet surf forecast.
Super high morning tides throwing a bit of a damper on the morning sections but it is probably worth

Kind of warm in the local mountains but snow conditions look pretty fun. We might get a little fresh snow
next week, keep your fingers crossed. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays and Happy New Year!!
