Today

Solid day of waves, esp. for Manhattan north. Semi-clean AM, mostly lined/walled up. Some PM bump.

SSW swell tops out and mixes with just a bit of NW swell. Sharp gradient in surf size from south to north: knee-waist high waves at average spots further south. Better breaks chest-shoulder-high+ as far north standouts go head-high to a little larger at times. Mostly walled, especially on the earlier low tide, but just enough NW for the occasional corner.

Light onshore SW-W early for some crumble, which will nudge up through the AM. Manageable SW-W PM onshores and a partial evening clean up.
