    What the hell, the buoy reading are saying 9-11 ft. for Friday and Saturday, how can the swell diminish that much between the buoy and the beach?...****...I was all amped up for another swell...lol

    I think what you mean is the wave model data rather than buoy data, which only record current data, not future data.

    The reason why the offshore data is higher than what is expected at the beach on Friday, is because the swell is mostly in the SW direction, which is mostly moving away from the beach.
