Was holding off to toss up a forecast. It has been changing somewhat a few times a day and will likely continue to change into the weekend. Still, it is getting GOOD! So, fingers crossed and here goes ...

Friday...West winds 15 to 20 knots becoming northwest 20 to 25 knots. Near shore...seas 2 to 3 feet. In the gulf stream...seas 2 to 4 feet building to 4 to 6 feet. Intracoastal waters a moderate chop. Chance of showers.

Friday Night... Northwest winds 15 to 20 knots becoming 20 to 25 knots. Seas 2 to 3 feet near shore and up to 6 to 8 feet in the gulf stream. Intracoastal waters a moderate chop. Slight chance of showers.

Saturday...North winds 20 to 25 knots becoming 10 to 15 knots. Seas 2 to 3 feet near shore and up to 7 to 9 feet in the gulf stream. Intracoastal waters a moderate chop.

Saturday Night...Northeast winds 10 to 15 knots. Seas 2 to 4 feet near shore and up to 5 to 7 feet in the gulf stream. Intracoastal waters a moderate chop.

Sunday...East winds 15 to 20 knots. Seas 3 to 5 feet. Intracoastal waters choppy in exposed areas.

Sunday Night...Southeast winds 15 to 20 knots becoming east 10 to 15 knots. Seas 2 feet or less near shore and up to 2 to 4 feet in the gulf stream. Intracoastal waters choppy in exposed areas.

Hope it holds or gets even better. With that sort of setup, clocking strong out of the west to NW, then cooking overnight, we're talking some WAVES. Should be fun.
