Last storm pulling through today and will clear out over the weekend. For Bay Area and south - that might be it for a while - north will still see some chances of rain on and off into May. Low pressure does appear to hang around the N Pac for a while - so we could end up having a wet May. Some areas north of Bodega have seen upwards of 8 inches of rain since this storm cycle started earlier in April. As for waves - XL swell just hitting the outer buoys - Mendocino is showing 10ft @18 seconds. Papa Buoy looks to have peaked overnight at 24ft @16 sec. Pretty solid for late April. This new swell is pretty west - 288 deg and was supercharged by extratropical storm Malakas which traveled across the N Pac this week. Look for south winds today changing to west on Friday and then going northwest over the weekend. There will be decent swell through Monday at this point - just smaller each day. Winds will more than likely be the issue - so check it. Plenty of swell around however. Cya in the water.
