First Tropical Depression

Hey gang...this isn’t really a surf update...but I thought I would share.

The first tropical depression of the season formed this morning.

Tropical Depression ONE-E (wow they give them such descriptive names)...pulled together a few hundred miles SSE of the Tip of Baja.



Current forecasts are not calling for this to be any sort of wave-maker for Southern California, or even much of Baja (maybe a few small waves around the tip, but really most of it will get lost in the bigger energy from the Southern Hemi). Really about all this system is going to do is try and drown parts of Central Mainland Mexico.

It is good to finally see some signs of life in the tropics...it has been a slow start to the season so far. Hopefully this will just be the start of a lot more activity.
