AI Spot Summary
Lauderdale-by-the-Sea is feeling a bit sluggish today, with that persistent SE wind churning up the shallows and keeping things murky. While the minimal rainfall is a nice break, the cross-onshore flow is definitely doing a number on the water clarity. The estimated visibility today is 10-15 ft, so expect to stick close to the reef structure if you want to see anything at all.
