    Things are looking possible for tomorrow.
    The surf according to Spike!
    Cape Peninsula
    (Spike, 08h30 Mon 25 Aug)
    Lots of rain overnight into Monday as another front passed. Winds Monday are moderate to fresh SW = manky onshore conditions along the western seaboard of Slaapstad, despite leftover 4-5' storm swell at SSW subsiding as it swings more and more southerly in direction. This brings False Bay into play, with building 3-4' lines but cross-shore West to SW winds. By Tuesday, the wind has died into a calm day, and False Bay cooking 4-6' South at 11 secs in glassy seas, a light bumpy SE onshore arriving in the arvie. On Wednesday, kiff leftover 3-4' lines around as the South swell eases, going more SSE. Winds light variable E to W, becoming offshore NW 5-10 kts.

    I have just been informed that the Nomad Kalk Bay Shoot Out 2008 is ON in cooking 3 to 4 foot glassy conditions.

    It is currently low tide and The Reef is firing on all cylinders!

    Good luck to all involved.
