Another strong SSW swell moves in - not nearly as big as the 8th-10th but still good size.

Dawn-10am: A recent SPAC storm set up another SSW swell which will fill in over the weekend. Not a monster storm for seas, but still good size, on a favorable track and also moving over an agitated sea state (pre heated oven from earlier storms) for SoCal swell production.

Afternoon Outlook: Standouts pushing a foot or two overhead by the end of the day.
