Swell Summary

The current medium-period south-southeast swell producing above average surf along south-facing shores this afternoon will gradually fade over the next few days. A new long-period south-southwest swell should steadily fill in Wednesday and peak Thursday into Friday above advisory thresholds. Reinforcing SSW swells are expected over the weekend, likely maintaining advisory level surf.

Surf along east-facing shores should see some small medium period energy from former TC Elida over the next few days, peaking on Wednesday near seasonal levels. Stronger trade winds will also support an increase of short-period energy by Wednesday. This weekend, larger surf generated by Hurricane Fausto is possible and could bring advisory level surf along east facing shores. Surf along north-facing shores will remain at flat to tiny levels through the weekend.
