On Monday morning things should taper off, but leave top West facing breaks into the waist to chest high zone from a steep 310-320 degree angle. The tide will slow things down early with a high die of 5.51 feet at 8:37 AM, but the dawn patrollers should be able to get a little action if they don’t hit the snooze button.
