You're killing me!  I want to very, very badly but I think the chances of Ana letting me go are very, very slim!!

Jim, it is ssssssoooooo much easier to just go and beg for forgiveness than to not go, and have begged for permission.
Live your life, the way you want to be remembered. Don't have any regrets, we only get this one dance to make it count. Start at your eulogy, and work backwards.

very

although I should add a disclaimer, I haven't checked the swell forecast or tides in a while but I imagine its been snotty the last couple days.  Vis may have gone to crap and stayed crappy with the strong surge (from the long period swell) and displaced kelp. It may not be ideal....but I'd go.  be safe.

Maybe...IF that was the forecast for SWS. It's likely to be rougher than that. The forecast Andy posted is the general WX for all of Monterey Bay. And are we talking about beginner diving or kayaking because I think Andy is going to be diving.
Here's the NOAA forecast for that specific area in Carmel bay:
Variable winds less than 5 kt becoming NW 5 to 8 kt in the morning. Sunny. Mixed swell...WNW 9 to 10 ft at 13 seconds and S 1 ft at 14 seconds. Wind waves around 1 ft.

But then again, maybe I'm just being pessimistic because I can't go booohooo!
