Summary:
The SW swell (210-220) will continue to arrive through the day on Sunday mixing with the last of the WNW-NW energy from our local windswell and some smaller S-SW leftovers. Look for cleaner morning conditions with SE-E winds clearing the skies and grooming up the surf shape for more of our beaches.
