    Looks like a mid week swell producer to me....Halloween has traditionally had surf so why not!


    Gradual intensification is expected and Oscar is forecast to approach hurricane
    strength by Monday. Slight additional intensification is possible
    through the middle of next week, until extratropical transition
    occurs by 120 h

    Noticed a slight bump in the forecast today. Pretty wild wind pattern but still too far out right now.

    Not sure if this is oscar but my forecast is showing some fun looking chest high stuff from mid week through the weekend. Winds look terrible until the weekend though.
