Our first more significant northwest swell is hitting the outer buoys and will fill in overnight. West Oregon buoy peaked around 3am at 19 ft 11 seconds. Papa Buoy earlier at 19ft 13 seconds. This is all from a storm system in the Gulf of Alaska that is now bringing some rain to parts of Oregon and far Northern CA (Crescent City). Swell will peak Thursday/Friday at 8-10 ft @ 11-12 seconds. Certainly enough to bring some winter spots to life for a time. Winds are light today but unfortunately going to turn north to northwest strongly later today and last until Sunday. It's officially Fall, so that means early season storms heading into the Great Basin and offshore/north winds behind it. The usual set up and that's what we will have. Spots that can handle that wind direction will be cleanest. Swell will rapidly fall Saturday on. Cya in the water.
