A bit early to tell, but it looks like the central OR coast might be setting up for sailable NW starting FRI until early next week 8) Pressure model, MM5 and NOAA are all looking positive at this point. I may be forced into heading down Fri pm...

Magic Seaweed Florence Surf Report

I like the descriptions here: Swell Info Florence Surf Report
