hey, you guys wanted a 7 day forecast!! thats what happens when you try to forecast east coast surf 7 days out.
But, actually, I think there is a lot of potential in this upcoming system. Keep an eye on the updates.
Remember, the wave maps are updated 4 times per day, while the forecast is only updated twice. So, that is why sometimes there are some conflict between the two.
