Swell Summary

Surf along north and east-facing shores will remain small through the first half of the week, primarily featuring small, short- period north-northwest swell. An upward trend is expected Wednesday into the second half of the week, as a short- to medium- period north-northeast swell arrives. Heights could reach advisory levels for east-facing shores beginning late Wednesday night into Thursday, while north-facing exposures are expected to remain below advisory levels. Surf for north and east facing shores will peak late Friday into Saturday, then lower through the weekend. Surf along south facing shores will remain small, with predominantly a mix of short- to medium-period southeast and long-period south-southwest swells. Peak monthly tides will lead to minor coastal flooding in the typical low-lying vulnerable areas around daybreak today. Peak daily tides will gradually lower through the rest of the week.
