SUMMARY

A strong pulse of reinforcin­g ESE swell sees surf-heights back up to stronger 4 to 5ft levels along exposed areas today, wrapping at a better quality 3 to 5ft into the points and bays under early light winds tending moderate E during the day. Expect still powerful surf in the 3 to 5ft range on Sunday, gradually settling Monday/ Tuesday under lighter inshore winds tending E to NE. Wednesday may mark the beginning of a renewed building trend in E swell; speculativ­ely leading in a powerful ESE cyclone-swell into Thursday and Friday.

TODAY

Easing ESE swell reinforced by new E groundswel­l. Solid sets ranging from 4 to 5ft+ exposed breaks, grading to 3 to 5ft inside the points and bays. WIND: Early lighter SSW to SE inshore, tending E 10 to 15 knots.

TOMORROW

E groundswel­l slowly eases. Ranging from 3 to 5ft along exposed breaks, easing up during the afternoon. Wrapping at 3 to 4ft into the points and bays. WIND: Early light and variable tending ENE to NE 10 to 15 knots during the afternoon.

MONDAY

E swell slowly eases. Solid sets ranging from 3 to 4ft exposed breaks. Wrapping at 2 to 3ft+ inside the points and bays. WIND: Lighter NW to NNW inshore, tending NNE to 5 to 15 knots.

TUESDAY

Leftover E tradewind swell. Ranging from 2 to 3ft exposed breaks. Wrapping at lower levels inside the points and bays. WIND: Early light WNW tending SW, then SSE to SE 10 to 15 knots during the afternoon.

WEDNESDAY

Good potential for a renewed building trend in E swell. Around 2 to 3ft early, rising to 3 to 4ft during the afternoon. Wrapping in at lower levels inside the points and bays with size depending on exposure. WIND: Early lighter WSW to SSW inshore, tending ESE 10 to 15 knots, possibly stronger later.
