something goofy going on this morning with the NOAA marine forecast for swells, I'm guessing there will be an update to their forecast soon.

they seem to be missing the primary swell and are just reporting the weak secondary swell after 8am. 

I just pulled these 3 forecast images for Depot Bay-  NOAA forecast, NOAA hourly, and MSW:

Hey Roger, the spot forecast for inside Depoe Bay will always be small. Try clicking on the ocean a 1/4 mile west of the bay, it should give you the "real" forecast.

you nailed it, I thought my click was far enough out to get ocean just outside Depot.  cheers.
