Swell Summary

Surf along exposed north and west facing shores will steadily ease today as a medium-period north-northwest swell moves out. An upward trend is expected Sunday through early next week due to a decent sized short- to medium-period northwest swell expected. Heights will near the advisory level as the swell peaks Monday through Tuesday. Surf along east facing shores will become rough as the winds peak today and tonight, but should steadily trend down over the weekend as the winds veer out of the south. Small surf will persist next week. Surf along south facing shores remain small with mainly background south- southwest swell expected. The next long-period pulse is expected late Friday that should hold through the weekend before moving out. If the moderate to fresh south-southwest winds materialize as advertised later in the weekend, conditions may become rough and choppy along southerly exposures.
