Swell Summary

The current medium period NW (310-330) swell will gradually decline over the next couple days, but a new reinforcing moderate long period NW (320-340) swell will build in today, peak on Saturday, then gradually diminish as well. Surf along north and west facing shores will thus remain elevated through most of the weekend.

The first half of next week will then feature a moderate long period NW (320) swell that will peak Monday into Monday night only to be quickly followed by a borderline large NW (320) long period swell the forerunners of which should begin arriving late Tuesday. This latter swell will likely elevate surf to the High Surf Advisory threshold for N and W facing shores on Wednesday.

Surf along east-facing shores will remain elevated and choppy through the middle of next week due to the strong trade winds.

Surf along south-facing shores will remain small and near the seasonal average through the middle of next week.
