An extra-large WNW swell will bring dangerously high surf to exposed N and W facing shores through Thursday. With peak surf heights near 40 feet expected in exposed locations today, a High Surf Warning remains posted for most N and W facing shores. Surf will peak today, then gradually diminish into Saturday. Surf heights will likely fall below High Surf Warning levels Thursday night, and below High Surf Advisory heights by Saturday. A new, moderate northwest swell is possible Sunday.
