Marginal conditions across the Gulf today with onshore and cross-onshore winds hammering most spots. Best of a bad bunch are Isla Blanca Park and South Padre Island, both at ★1.5, with around 2.8ft model estimate swell at 6 seconds from the ESE and cross winds keeping things slightly cleaner than the rest of the coast. Swell holds steady through the next day or two before fading, but with persistent onshore flow in the forecast, don't expect much improvement — this stretch is one to sit out.
