Swell Summary

The current moderate to long period north-northwest swell will peak tonight and then slowly decline this weekend. A series of northwest to north swells are expected next week that should produce near or above seasonal average surf. A small, long period south swell will linger into Saturday. This swell will result in above summer average surf heights before slowly subsiding early next week. A mix of both a reinforcing south southwest swell and new long period south southeast swell energy this weekend should maintain near to above seasonal average surf. South-facing shore surf will generally decline next week, but smaller south southwest swells will hold surf at near summer averages through the middle of next week. As the trades pick up a bit on Friday, expect a bit of an uptick in the easterly wind wave chop, which will continue through the weekend.
