Summary:
More SSW swell (195-215) will slip down slightly on Thursday but more long-period energy will start to push in later in the day. Local windswell may get a bump as winds in the outer waters increase, but how much of it will be able to make it around the corner of Point Conception will depend on how the fetch sets up as we get closer.
