New report from Wednesday.
Burke passes along this Wetsand Article which explains why Spring is windy, and why this Spring is windier than most which contributed to the Ekman Currents that drove our water temperatures down a few weeks ago.
The National Surf League is in it's Sophmore year with one new team and mascots and logos and avid fans. Our local team is the Ventura Pelicanos which represents Ventura and Santa Barbara and includes surnames like Curren, Malloy, Reynolds, and Martinez and is coached by Davey Smith. The NSL homepage, although filled with flash craziness, is full of information. Los Pelicanos host their home game on May 4-8 at C-Street and face off against SD, LA, OC, and SC in that order. More info on that game coming soon. Here's the rundown on the team names:
San Diego Sea Lions
Orange County Octopus
Los Angeles Arc Angels
Ventura Pelicanos
Santa Cruz Stormriders
The Third game starts tommorrow at Oceanside Pier and currently is looks like those Santa Cruz Stormriders are the team to watch out for.
