For Saturday morning another thumping swell should be in play for the dawn patrol. This next system will also have quite a bit of West in it tracking in at a 285-290 degree angle. This swell will also pack quite a punch with ass kicking 18-20 second intervals and OH to DOH set waves for the best West facing breaks.
Once again, the West facing beaches will likely be a bit daunting, but this swell should get into most all breaks with even the South facing beaches getting a nice little taste of the action.
