The forecast changed again. A little stronger but still offshore later today and tomorrow. If it stays clear and sunny there is a chance side shore thermal winds may build up at the beach independent of the prevailing offshore winds later on. This happens fairly frequently but is rarely in the forecast. If it happens, it should be rideable. If this comes about, be careful to be near or better onshore when it turns off (usually late in the day or around sunset) and the wind reverts to offshore again. Easy to lose boards otherwise. Hope the wind comes through for the event.

TODAY
SOUTH WINDS 5 TO 10 KNOTS BECOMING SOUTHWEST 10 TO
15 KNOTS. NEAR SHORE...SEAS 2 FEET OR LESS. WELL OFFSHORE...SEAS
2 FEET OR LESS BUILDING TO 2 TO 4 FEET. INTRACOASTAL WATERS A LIGHT
CHOP. SLIGHT CHANCE OF SHOWERS.

TONIGHT
WEST WINDS 10 TO 15 KNOTS BECOMING 15 TO 20 KNOTS. SEAS
2 TO 3 FEET NEAR SHORE AND UP TO 3 TO 5 FEET WELL OFFSHORE.

SUNDAY
NORTHWEST WINDS 10 TO 15 KNOTS. SEAS 2 TO 3 FEET NEAR
