A bit more wind and a lot more rain are headed our way today with more to follow on the weekend. Knee-high surf should not be a problem today but you will notice an increase in surge since yesterday. Temps still around 86 at 20’ and lobsters still gathering in all the usual nooks and crannies. Those hoping to go out for a midnight hunt should take care to watch the wind and surf for developments that might make entry and exit a challenge at night.
