For Monday morning we’ll see remnant swell out of the NW in the shoulder to head high + range and based on the beating I took today it may even be bigger for the top spots.

The more exciting news is that a new long interval swell will start sending scout sets in later in the day. This will start off with 18-20 second intervals from a 295 degree angle and have a bit of swagger to it.

For Tuesday morning that powerful ground swell should be in full swing and dish up some bruising head high to way OH surf. The top deep water West facing breaks will have larger, steam roller sets coming in on occasion so stay on your toes.

Tides, winds and swell all look good on paper so keep your fingers crossed!

* Beware of the Urban Runoff – It’s recommended that you stay out of the water for 72-hours following the end of any measurable rain-event. If you do choose to roll the dice be sure to wear ear plugs and shower with piping hot water after your session. Rinse your ears with an alcohol and vinegar solution and don’t be shy about busting out the netti pot or neil med rinse…
