The first day of spring came in with heavy rain, high winds and conditions generally unfavorable to swimming in the ocean. The heavy rain in the last 24 hours means that the creek will be flowing heavily carrying a lot of silt into the bay at our swimming spot. The last water quality samples were taken before the recent storm. With heavy rains water at Avila is often contaminated with bacteria, so I'm staying out today. If the water clears up, Rob and I will be swimming Wednesday evening at 5:30.
