A mix of increasing long- and medium-period swell today will lead to rising surf through this afternoon, with the swell gradually diminishing Wednesday. Another NW swell Thursday into Friday will likely also produce high surf before a general diminishing trend in NW swell develops next weekend.

A long-period S swell will peak today, producing surf near summertime averages along S facing shores, before gradually diminishing through Thursday. Another similarly-sized long-period S swell is expected by next weekend.
