There is a link to SWFD - BEACH on WaltonOutdoors.com. :roll: In addition to the flag warning, SWFD also posts a detailed surf forecast and explains the beach flag system in detail. It is the most comprehensive source and is updated twice a day.
Maybe I'm just totally exhausted (actually I am totally exhausted), but where is the link that says when green slime, heavy seaweed, or biting flies will be a factor?:wave:

I truly wasn't trying to disparage your blog. It's a great service. I was just making a suggestion. Maybe I'm just "see the above comment." Sorry.

That is exactly how I check it every day, I go to enjoy your website updates and then click on the SWFD link.

Then I'm lucky enough to drive a few miles and go play on the beach, oh, I mean check on the report's accuracy.:roll:

I take a lot of photos and happily post them for those that inquire, even though I know the conditions can change rapidly.

If I could figure out a way to get paid for it, I'd provide a detailed inspection report and photos of every South Walton beach every day!
 
I haven't been to this website in a while. but in the past I have been able to access beach infomation through the USNational Weather service website. Through that site I was able to access information from the Pensacola marina bouy system. It mainly included information about tides, temp, currents but occassionally included infomation a bout water clarity and other variables, ie june grass. There is a reason they call it junegrass by the way. Good luck...I will be down there in Nov and could post on conditions then.
 
Well, I'd never thought about the difference in surf conditions and beach conditions.

Clearly they aren't the same, although it's never occurred to me. WO was probably just thinking about surf...
