The best surf I have seen all year! The wind finally turned off-shore (WNW) and at this posting, is blowing at 12 mph. Wave height is 4’ overhead. At this moment, we have clean sections. It is definitely high performance day and only experienced surfers should be going out. My guess is that most of the beach rescue services will continue to post Red Flags: NOTE: WE ARE SELLING OFF OUR RENTAL EQUIPMENT.GARY, COROLLA SURF SHOP

Corolla is still under Red Flag conditions. The ocean is out of control. Wave height is well overhead with no consistent breaks. We are at high tide with the tide flipping at 10:36AM. Of course the culprit is he ENE wind blowing at 25 mpg plus which is making for chopping conditions. NOTE: YES, WE ARE SELLING OFF ALL OF OUR RENTAL EQUIPMENT! GARY, COROLLA SURF SHOP

We are still in the middle of Tropical Storm Hermine, of course the ocean is out of control. I took these pictures at Albacore Street right at high tide. From what I observed, Whalehead is not getting any over-wash. Wind speed is anybody’s guess. Corolla might be getting winds in the 50 mph+ but I have received reports that in KDH, wind speed has dropped. NOTE: WE WILL OPEN BACK TOMORROW! GARY, COROLLA SURF SHOP

Thursday’s clean stomach high surf has turned into surface chop due to a ENE wind that might stay with us from 1 to 3 days. Current wave height is hard determine due to the 23 mph wind. Service condition are choppy. Water temperature is still in the high 70s, although air temp has dropped down to 76°. Corolla Beach Rescue is currently posting yellow warning flags. However if they downgrade to red flag, I will make an adjustment on the surf report: GARY, COROLLA SURF REPORT
