Swell Summary
An extended run of higher south swell will continue through the week. Yesterday's south swell will continue to slowly decline through the day but long period forerunners from the next south swell will build in tonight. This swell will fill in Thursday and peak Friday morning and afternoon. A large reinforcing southern impulse will build in from late Friday through early Saturday. This swell will certainly lift south-facing surf to High Surf Advisory levels, possibly nearing High Surf Warning heights this weekend. This swell will gradually decline early next week.
Eastern exposure surf will be elevated through the day in response from a fading captured fetch from Tropical Cyclone Gil. Weakened winds has allowed the eastern swell to level out in the 3 to 4 foot/12 second period range. Thus, under a much lighter wind regime, eastern surf will remain just under advisory heights today. East swell will decline rapidly late today and Thursday as strengthening trades regenerate near seasonal wind wave averages. A captured east swell from Tropical Storm Henriette may arrive this weekend.
ARTICLE CONTINUES BELOW AD ARTICLE CONTINUES BELOW AD A very small northwest swell originating from a former West Pacific typhoon is producing very small surf along north-facing shores. Another tiny northwest swell is scheduled to arrive later today into Thursday and this will prevent north surf from going completely flat.
