Good morning.  The surf is big.  It’s running way over head.  But unfortunately its victory at sea today.  You are not going to be able to paddle out at the pier.  Looks like the beaches will stay open all day.  The water will have to go over the road by the toll booth for them to close it.  The wind is blowing 17-20+ out of the East. It has a touch of south in it.  If you want to surf today you will gave to go somewhere its protected…very protected.  Tropical Storm Isaac has sustained winds of 70 mph and its moving NW at 7 mph.  Look like it’s supposed to be a category 1 hurricane when it hits.  The models are still showing it hitting New Orleans either really late tonight or early tomorrow morning.  Have a great morning and we will give you another update later today.
