Make the most of the next couple of days because the weekend's large swell is going to be shocking.

Thursday will have residual 5-6ft surf surf under workable northeasterly breezes, while Friday will see a fresh pulse with dicey winds. As for the metro beaches, the surf should continue in the 1-2ft range for the remainder of the week.

Winds are likely to be fresh onshore for the duration of the weekend's swell event. Hang out for Tuesday which has the next best chance of light winds and residual energy in the water.
