For Monday morning we’ll see the NW swell dip down into the chest high range and remain on the same steep trajectory of 300-310 degrees. The SW energy will drum up chest high sets from that steep 175-180 degree angle and the intervals will dip to 14-16 seconds.

There’s still plenty of swell to be had, but the severity of the angles will make it a bit more challenging to find waves.

For Tuesday morning the South swell will remain relevant with waist to chest high sets for the exposed South facing beaches. Same steep 180 degree angle with slightly shorter 16 second intervals.

It looks like we’ll see another round of NW swell fill in from a steep 300 + degree angle and 14 second intervals. This should be good for chest high sets for the most exposed West facing beaches.
