Today

Solid day of waves, conditions look dicey with potential for stronger SE wind in the morning.

SSW swell tops out for knee-waist high waves at average spots. Better breaks chest-shoulder-high+ as far north stanouts go ehad-high to a little larger at time. Not a lot of NW energy in the mix so the open beachbreaks are pretty walled -- especially around the early/mid-AM low tide.

Another clean start, southerly wind texture starts to show by the time the tide starts pushing it, but it looks pretty mellow. Manageable SSW PM onshores.
