Good Sunny Morning to you.

Another hot and humid day awaits us with scattered afternoon thunder.  Typical summer day.

The beaches were full of friendly guests yesterday, and are keeping up the "leave no trace" county ordinance.  The turtle nests looked intact and well marked.  The surf was up yesterday, and most people heeded the red flag warnings.  I think the jellyfish (sea nettles) helped a little too.  The surfers were out in full force, sigh, so that made a few swimmers bold enough to go in on their own.  Of course, those were far far far from the life guards.  Before it went red flag, I warned a group of teens swimming within 10 feet of the Pier that they were about 5 feet from the Pier Rip.  There is ALWAYS a rip current near the Pier, but during tides switches or long swells, it gets stronger, add smacking into a piling, and you're looking at a really bad day.  Keep pushing those beach safety points.

We still have JuneGrass in the surf zone and the occasional blog of Sargasso weed with it's berries.  The high surf last night brought in churned protein foam, it is NOT oil mousse.  The well head is still capped and holding.  The coast guard reported yesterday that it has not seen oil within 60 miles of the Florida coastline.

BP clean-up crews are working all day, and at night.  I saw the night shift heading out to the beach as I was coming in from the beach at 9pm.  Donning their cleaning gear, and turtle safe red head lamps, they looked like Snow White's crew heading for the gem mines.

There you have it.  Still, if you have any questions, comments, or concerns, you can comment here or send an email to  surfnavarrebeach@gmail.com and I'll get right on them.
