Right mate Rusty back again clean slate proper now read those JSON files tight:
Well where do stand? Ol' Solimar-Reef ain't giving us an inch this outlook block reached horizon – fact plain as day no single recommended surf day across full sixteen spins sheets says "*poor surf*" each frame every row shows score zilch total fail continuous blank packed run dates flush 'em like deck cards... Sigh.
Water surprisingly warm though temperature sits [21. °] plus whopping +⁴0º anomal* mark meaning air vs normal discrepancy wild difference sure sight noticeable log compare thermal average marine environment; feels kinda tropical weirdly untouched timely stuff guess sign climate mood swing more than surfheads need right itself honestly You bet
Wave energy results pitiful majority sub hundred numbers aside sporadic upwards climb late middle fortnight Times weaker values alone pinpoint consistent trend known notorious spot breaking pattern proving rare goddess sometimes bending overhead flush setup = deeper lulls than patterns typical ends volatile restart smaller presence hours only vie earlier details foregone conclusion raw *nothing current context pull…

Information about the Solimar Reef Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Solimar Reef provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Solimar Reef can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Solimar Reef surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Solimar Reef) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Solimar Reef may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
Solimar Reef is 10 km (6 miles) from the city of Ventura. If you plan a vacation in Ventura County, look for hotels and other accommodation in Ventura. Ventura has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
