Swell Summary

The short period northeast swell will continue a gradual decrease through the weekend as the northeast trade winds slowly diminish. As a result, surf along north- and east-facing shores surf will gradually decline through the rest of the week, but will still retain a little size and chop due to the moderate to locally breezy trades.

North- and west-facing shore surf will remain small to tiny until the arrival of a small, medium-period west-northwest (310 degree) swell Friday night and a second small, medium-period northwest (340 degree) swell late Saturday. A small to moderate medium-period west- northwest swell looks to arrive early next week and fills in by mid- week. Along south facing shores, expect small reinforcements to provide periods of small surf through the weekend until a slightly larger long period south swell fills in early next week.
