On Wednesday morning things will start off small with knee to waist high surf struggling to make its presence known as it fights its way through yet another jumbo high tide.

The good news is that we’re due some fresh Westerly swell from a liberal angle of 270 degrees with 14-16 second intervals. This should fill in late morning and put the most exposed beaches in the head high to OH range.
