Today

Waist to shoulder high ESE trending SE windswell, biggest out west. NE trending E/ESE winds.

Fun surf around to start with manageable winds. Some drift and current to contend with but a nice morning to get some waves.

Stronger Bertha swell fills in today. Initially this will be from the ESE before trending more SE through the day. We'll get the most size out west but winds become an issue there. It'll be cleaner but smaller around PCB.

Expect the most size to show by the end of the day -- know your limits but take advantage of the surf while we have it.
