1.21 Gigawatt Swell Shows Up in Rincon!<\/h3>\n

Ok so the models and myself highly underestimated the the initial push of this swell. Now I have conflicting views on this weekend. The models are calling for every other day this weekend to be considerably smaller than today; however, based on what has been hitting the outside buoys all day today and most of yesterday, I think we’ll still see some 2-4ft overhead surf tomorrow (Friday), head high on Saturday, and head high plus on Sunday, building throughout the day.<\/p>\n

My take on the next swell for next week.<\/h3>\n

The swell height and period are looking decent. I think it will be big but not too much bigger than what we’ve seen today (Thursday) due to the NE angle of the predicted swell. If the swell ends up having more north in it we could easily see some triple overhead surf. The swell will linger around in the ocean, but the angle switches more NE to ENE as the week goes on so spots further north on the island should continue to see big conditions, but Rincon will fade each day the angle goes more easterly. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
