    <link>http://www.surfingcal.com</link>
    <description>&lt;b&gt;California Surfing Report&lt;/b&gt; - Pacifica - 23 May 08 (Fri) 8:40AM. Waves at the north end look like 7ft closeouts. Parking lot on south is anywhere from 2-5ft. The smallest waves look like they have some open shoulders but other than that....yup, closeouts. Tide is low now so maybe it will improve a little later, then again the onshore flow should pick up. Sunny out with some light onshore flow right now.</description>

    <description>&lt;b&gt;California Surfing Report&lt;/b&gt; - Pacifica - 13 May 08 (Tue) 8:50AM. Better than yesterday but not great. 3-5ft waves, still lots of closeouts. Sunny out with light onshore wind. Some texture and the tide is dropping. There are a few rideable shoulders. With the high pressure building in it might be worth a look later in the late afternoon. Otherwise, tomorrow should show much improvement. However, if today is your only day you might as well take advantage of the sunshine.</description>
