Today

Building windswell with strong sideshore winds. More size later but choppy, drifty conditions.

An increase in south to southwest winds over the local waters produces more windswell over the afternoon. Our local winds are pretty strong out of the SSW/S setting up sideshore, wind-blown conditions. It is rideable, but not very pretty.
