labour day weekend surf/storm - september 2010
last week i noticed there was a big cold front coming through for the labour day weekend. i knew this would bring surf and cold temperatures. unfortunately the wind was more west then north which made things big, burly, and choppy. i shot some photos each day as the front moved through.
saturday was the biggest day, with the provincial police trying to shut down the beach due to the amount of swimming drownings this year in big waves. we went out later on saturday with some eerie skies, then noticing a giant waterspout a few kilometers down the beach. after a beer night at the local pub with all the local, and out-of-town surfers, sunday was a better, cleaner day. we spent the majority of the day at the beach fighting the rip-current and catching some waves. i was hoping to get up this morning for an early paddleboard session for day 4, but it was flat. it’s all good though; fall made it’s appearance pretty fast, and that means surf season has arrived.
