Today

Fading but still punchy surf as swell eases, most size in the AM. Wind on the lighter side, AM best

Dawn-10AM: Slow fading SSW swell, along with a little NW swell, is still good for chest to head high waves at summertime spots in the morning, while best breaks in the south end of the county see overhead sets.
