The anticipated swell starts to show

The morning started on the slow side, and most of us were starting to think the swell was not going to make it.  But as the day went on the waves picked up. By 4 p.m. the size had jumped up to a solid 5 foot and signs of more on the way. Tomorrow we should wake up to size in the 6- to 8-foot range, with the Wedge hitting close to 12'.
