The Tuesday Morning Swim Report -
There were scattered high clouds and sunshine this morning in Avila Beach. It was 54° and the surf was up with consistant 4+ foot waves. The buoys were rising an falling on the swells and it would take some timing to get out between the big ones. I would feel the swell passing under me for my entire swim.
It is undeniable, the ocean has begun sliding towards winter conditions.

After a very comfortable swim on Sunday in the 61° water this morning the water felt like it was more like 58°, but I measured a temperature of 60°, so I'm thinking the felt temperature was due to minus one degree for the lack of strong sunshine and minus another degree for an air temperature that was 20° lower than it was at 11 o'clock on Sunday.
I'll accept the 'colder' water temp for this morning's sunrise.
There should be more nice sunrises for the 7 o'clock swims on Thursday and Saturday.
