Yesterday's glassy late afternoon session saw a building southwest swell that has filled in today, although conditions today are choppy with a moderate NW wind.
Angle looks like a steeper SW. Beachbreaks that pick up the angle may have some head-high sets.
Chest-high sets are rolling through, albeit infrequently, though waist-high in-betweeners fill the void nicely, considering how flat it's been lately.

Winds will likely stay moderately onshore for the duration of the day. But if the sun eventually pops out, maybe we'll see an evening glass-off.

For tomorrow, Saturday the 30th, steep SW and windswell continue to produce chest-high long-period energy. Should be at least 2-4 feet for the weekend.
