South Pointe is looking a bit murky today, typical for this spot after some rain. The NNE cross-shore wind at 5.9 mph is the best factor, keeping the surface relatively calm with 1-2 ft surf. However, the recent 0.29 inches of rain has definitely stirred things up, making visibility the worst factor. The estimated visibility today is 5-10 ft, and with the tide still rising for another 5 hours, those strong Government Cut currents will be pushing through.
