The strandSURF.com surf report is usually completed in the morning so please take into consideration that weather conditions can change in a short period of time. If we are in a period of heightened activity we will make an effort to have more than one report a day. In this report we measure wave height assuming that a surfer is standing on the board. Example: If the report is calling wave height to be Chest High that would mean that the front of the wave (not the back) is about 4 feet high in the face. Most reports will indicate the location, if not just assume it's in the Garden City area.
