Cocoa Beach Current Surf Conditions:The NE swell has fully made its way into the area, we should be seeing raw swell at 3 and a half foot at 12 seconds. This in turn… with a strong ground swell gradient involved equals chest to a foot over head waves. Winds will be cross offshore in the morning, going more onshore through the day before turning offshore tonight into Friday morning. Winds ~ out of the SE @12kts early, SSE @ 14kts later. Cocoa Beach Surf Forecast:FRIDAY ~
Fun sized NE swell continues. Size decreases as the afternoon pushes on. Announcement: Niki Wheat's Environmental IssueOkay everyone, I am calling in a favor...and it won't take much of your time... I mean it's not like I get up early every day to do you a favor and get you the surf report or anything right???? Okay, sarcasm aside... I really would like your help here. As a surfing community we need to ban together for change again, just like we did for Trestles. We all saw what the surf community could do, it is time to help out another issue... SHARK FINNING. I am urging you to support, HR 5741, the Shark Conservation Act of 2008. Each year, humans kill more than 100 million sharks worldwide. Sharks are highly vulnerable to pressure from human activities because of their slow growth and low reproductive potential. Tens of millions of sharks are killed each year for their fins alone. Congress passed the Shark Finning Prohibition Act in 2000 to end shark finning in U.S. waters. However, a recent court decision revealed a loophole in the Act, and HR 5741, seeks to close this loophole and improve shark conservation and management. The Shark Conservation Act of 2008 would require all sharks to be landed with their fins. In addition, it allows the U.S. to take actions against countries that do not have shark finning bans like the United States. HR 5741, the Shark Conservation Act of 2008, would improve shark fishery management and promote shark conservation in U.S. waters and beyond. Please support this important legislation by cosponsoring the Shark Conservation Act of 2008 and by voting yes to enact this bill into law. And one more thing, if you have not seen the movie "SharkWater" yet, it is time to get on the ball with this... I saw it over the weekend, it was a turning point for me. We can't let this go on any longer. Join me in the fight to save Sharks! You can finally rent Shark Water on DVD. Netflicks has it, but I am not sure about other rental places. If you find it at other places email me and I will pass the info along. Also check out my blog about Why You Should Help Save Sharks. Click Here Thanks everyone!
