EAST COAST
SURF REPORT
Friday April 24th Brevard County 9:00am Well, I have been staring at it for about 20 minutes. There's a little swell still out there and the wind finally died but it's pretty glaring locally we don't have any kind of sandbar to work with here in Satellite Beach. I'm sure with some hunting you could find knee to waist high lines to work with today. Looks like small surf in the thigh high range hangs around through the weekend. Tides today LT 8:37am HT 2:38pm LT 9:04pm Atlantic Temp 74°
