Swell Summary

Surf along north-facing shores will remain small through most of next week, with mainly small, medium-period northwest pulses moving through. A fading north-northwest swell will linger today, then move out over the weekend. Surf along south-facing shores will remain small, with mainly a mix of short- to medium-period southeast and south-southwest swells moving through. The next small, long-period southwest swell is expected over the weekend, with a similar pulse arriving early next week. Surf along east-facing shores will remain small and choppy each day through the weekend, then trend down as the trades ease locally and upstream early next week. Peak monthly tides could lead to minor coastal flooding in the typical low-lying vulnerable areas around or just before daybreak each day through the weekend.
