Outlook

---
Longterm the models are not indicating anything more favorable for swell production. One batch of low pressure is looking to be starting to exit east off the Northeast Us Coast, but it looks like another batch is setting up west of the Great Lakes and making a move towards the Northeast US. Regardless, an offshore flow is to continue, meaning low odds of any swell resulting.
