Afternoon Update

A little wave crumbling on the outside every now and then.  Doesn’t look too appealing to me even if the water was clean.  Might be longboardable but the rides are fairly short before the wave hits that deep section before shore.  Saw a couple guys swimming around and fortunately it looks like they didn’t sprout any new limbs while I was out there.  Looks like there’s waves north of us so grab a buddy and head towards clean water if you can.  Check back tomorrow for any changes and enjoy the rest of the day. Not trying to scare anyone but please read below for your safety.  Florence floodwaters alone will have tons of pathogens (bacteria, viruses, parasites), in addition to the 5.5 million gallon sewage spill from the Southside wastewater treatment plant, and coal ash pond and hog lagoons breached – all making their way into the Atlantic Ocean eventually. Please consider all this before you decide if/when to get back in the water.  Be safe and we will do our best to try and keep you updated.  *Sweetwater’s All For Fall Sale!  Check out the news section for all the deals going on at the shop!*
