It was low in Rosarito, but not that low. There are some very low tides the next few days with the full moon coming Tuesday. I didn't get a tsumani
warning e-mail- which generally come after every major quake in the south pacific.

In So Cal, we get an extreme high tide of +7' or so,
and an extreme low of -2 1/2' so maybe 9 1/2' of vertical water
movement, which as pointed out happen on a full/new moon.
San Felipe has some of the extreme tides I know of,
with an high of + 18',
with a low of -4', approx. 22' of water movement

The Mysterious Sucking ?
It is rumored that a new Hydrological system is being tested by CBP to facilitate turning the tide at will on Pangero Coyotes.
Did anyone notice Black Helicopters hovering above doing Video Recording ?

More interesting than the low tide is seeing how far out they are building the new border wall (to keep out then terrorists   )... Before, you could walk into (or out of) the USA on the beach... not legally, of course!

I was camped at S. Carlsbad State Beach this weekend. Tides were also very low early in the afternoon.
Great weather. Great Surf
No worries
