It seems like one of those swells that will work great at one local break but not the one right next to it, so do your homework.
Water temp is still high 50s/low 60s.
Sunset tonight: 4:42 p.m.
For tomorrow, Wednesday the 30th, swell will stay around hip to chest high but is expected to back off slightly from today.
