Swell Scan Aug. 6, 2009

Hurricane Felicia now category 4, blowing 120 kt winds and stirring up impressive fetch. Not the most favorable swell track though, but we should see something out of this over the weekend (Sat.), along with some background southern hemi. Winds to be an issue for the near term, but improve by the weekend. Here's a look at what's happening across the Pacific to bring swell to California.
