April 4, 2013 @ 8:06pm When the storm passed, the wind died around 3pm and it got fun. Chest to shoulder peaks. Drifted down to the jetty/inlet and the waves there were hollow. Enough juice for 2-3 turns. Rights were a bit longer than the left. South Current. Posted by: zach619 Hilton Head Island, SC	3-5 ft	(04/04)
March 24, 2013 @ 8:04pm When the storm passed at 2pm, wind went offshore and the surf was running waist to occasional chest. Clean conditions, decent lines on the standout sets. Incoming to high tide around 4pm was really fun on a quad fish. The crowd gathered around 5pm Posted by: zach619 Burkes, HHI, SC	2-4 ft	(03/24)
