Swell Summary
A pair of northern Pacific systems moving south of the Aleutian Islands and into the Gulf of Alaska the next several days will produce a couple of north to northwest swells that will reach the islands Sunday and fill in Monday and then again Tuesday into Wednesday. This will result in heightened north and west-facing shore surf well into next week. The first near four foot, medium period northwest swell is timed to fill in during the day on Sunday. This swell should peak Sunday night and Monday surf to or above head high and then slowly fall through Tuesday. A slightly larger, medium period more northwest-turning-north swell is expected to reach the islands and fill in from late Tuesday through early Thursday. This swell will reinforce these head to over head high surf heights from mid to late week.
ARTICLE CONTINUES BELOW AD ARTICLE CONTINUES BELOW AD East-facing short period wind wave chop will significantly fall next week as east trades disappear and light or gentle breezes become the new wind regime. South-facing shore surf will remain around waist high through early next week. There may be a slight bump in southeast low period swell, mixed into weekend background south swell, that originated from a small fetch region far southeast of the island chain. This may lift surf from chest to near head high along more southeastern exposures from Sunday into mid week.
