Swell Summary

A small, short to medium period west to west-northwest swell will bring small to moderate surf to north and west facing shores through the weekend. Additionally, a small, medium period north swell is expected to build through the day and peak Saturday before gradually declining. Rough and choppy surf will continue along south-facing shores due to the south to southeast wind direction. These south winds will intensify this morning causing south shore surf to build into the weekend. Once southerly winds diminish early next week, a small to moderate, long-period south swell generated by a gale force low east-southeast of New Zealand will arrive along south-facing shores and build into midweek. Surf along east-facing shores will remain below seasonal levels as south to southeast winds prevail.
