For Monday morning the surf will begin to back down but the exposed beaches will continue to churn out chest to head high + sets in the morning and then slowly taper off later in the day.

This leftover energy will march on at that same 290-300 degree angle, but the intervals will degrade to 12-14 second intervals.
