Swell Summary




A large north swell is on the downward trend today although still in High Surf Advisory (HSA) criteria. Large surf will persist for most north and west facing shores through the weekend as another powerful long period northwest (310 degrees) swell is expected to rise Saturday and hold through Sunday. Surf for east facing shores will remain small except areas exposed to the north swell which may see some wrap through Saturday. After this long-lived swell eases, surf heights early next week looks to remain below HSA heights along all shores as moderate- sized northwest swells arrive, with a small south swell possible this weekend.
