Swell Summary

The current, large, long-period northwest (310-320 degree) swell will steadily decline through tonight. A series of northwest to north- northwest (310-330 degree) swells are expected during the second half of the week, with each pulse becoming slightly bigger and veering towards the north- northwest direction. The first pulse will be filling in on Wednesday and will be more of a medium period swell out of the northwest, likely below advisory thresholds. A slightly larger and longer period pulse is expected on Thursday out of the northwest followed by a slightly larger north-northwest on Friday. Surf heights should exceed advisory thresholds around Thursday with surf heights likely holding above advisory thresholds through Saturday.

East shore surf will remain small through Thursday due to weak winds, then become choppier as trade winds increase Friday through the weekend. Expect minimal background energy for south facing shores through much of the week.
