swells
THURSDAY...surf to build along northern and southern shores as a new northwest and south swell start to fill in. presently a small north-northeast swell is moving through the island chain. with open ocean waveheights of only 2ft or so this swell may be disguised by the local windswell generated near and upstream of the islands. this meager north-northeast swell will move out of the picture and be replaced by a larger northweest swell that should start to ping buoy 1 between 8-10am tomorrow morning. forerunners of the swell may be seen as early as modnight the previous night, but the main swell swath will be under buoy 1 sometime mid-morning. locally swell should start to fill in during the afternoon and possiby be producing surf by late afternoon. the call is for a small morning with slowly increasing surf as the day progresses. surf may near the 4ft catagory by the afternoon. southern shores will also see a pulse out of the south with surf reaching 3ft at top locations. winds may be strong and gusty.
