Thumbs up

That's a good one but I like this one better:

Tonight
Northeast winds near 10 knots early...increasing to 10 to 15 knots. Seas beyond the reef around 2 feet...except higher in the Gulf Stream. Seas inside the reef around 1 foot. Nearshore waters a light to moderate chop. Isolated showers.
Wednesday
Northeast winds increasing to near 15 knots. Seas beyond the reef building to 3 to 4 feet...except higher in the Gulf Stream. Seas inside the reef around 2 feet. Nearshore waters a moderate chop. Isolated showers.
Wednesday Night
Northeast winds near 15 knots. Seas beyond the reef 3 to 5 feet...except higher in the Gulf Stream. Seas inside the reef around 2 feet. Nearshore waters a moderate chop. Isolated showers.
Thursday
Northeast winds near 15 knots early...increasing to 15 to 20 knots and gusty. Seas beyond the reef 3 to 5 feet early... building to 4 to 6 feet. Seas higher in the Gulf Stream. Seas inside the reef 2 to 3 feet. Nearshore waters a moderate chop early... becoming choppy. Scattered showers.
Thursday Night Through Friday
Northeast winds 20 to 25 knots and gusty. Seas beyond the reef 5 to 9 feet...except higher in the Gulf Stream. Seas inside the reef 2 to 4 feet. Nearshore waters very rough. Scattered showers.
Saturday And Sunday
Northeast to east winds near 20 knots and gusty. Seas beyond the reef 6 to 8 feet...except higher in the Gulf Stream. Seas inside the reef 2 to 4 feet. Nearshore waters rough. Scattered showers.

... and the Ikite forecast looks even better.
