    Micah...Are the wave maps off according to the actual forecast? Looks like a 24 hour shift...

    wave maps are looking ok to me... Looks like models have shifted this swell over towards wednesday rather than tuesday.

    There is a problem on the surfplots with the swellinfo incons being displayed 24 hours behind... Just noticed this on the update this afternoon. My guess is that February 29th (leap year) calculations might be throwing it off. Looking into this now.

    OR

    I might let this error run its course through the night and not worry about it for 4 more years!
    I'm kind of favoring this later, since its 11:00pm on a friday night.
