That means spring time after work wind swell is on its way.

is that a good thing? short period wind swell = crap = go windsurfing up here. However, I have surfed those conditions in April in SB a few years back.

I guess it's all relative when the other option is it being flat.

I find local windswell to be more enjoyable than sharing mediocre Rincon with 200 of my best friends.
