point panics at dusk
7/13
WEDNESDAY...a small bump on southern shores for tomorrow. from first hand experience i am the eye witness that there is some swell coming in on southern shores. i was at point panics this evening at around 1900hrs and there was definitely a small swell comong in...quite consistently i might add for south shore standards. the swell seemed very south with a touch of west which is pretty much on cue with what models were predicting. waves werre coming in every 10min or so and sometimes sets had more than three waves. it is my guess that this is the forerunners of the new south swell. the swell should peak early tomorrow in the head high range and then begin to decline by the afternoon. the south-southeast swell was tough to distinguish from the main southerly ground swell so for arguments sake i'm claiming its smaller ot has yet to arrive. buoy 4 is picking up slightly more energy than buoys 2 and 3 so it is a good bet that larger waves are east of us here in hawaii.
