Swell Summary

A small, medium period northwest swell will continue to provide a a slight boost to west facing shores today. However, a large, medium period, north- northwest (340-350 deg) swell should start to arrive late tonight, providing large level surf. This swell will hold as it transitions to a more northerly direction Tuesday, then slowly subside Wednesday into Thursday. An out of season south swell will continue today near the summertime average, then decline over the next few days. Surf along east facing shores will remain rough and choppy as the trade winds build back this week. Although, east facing shores exposed to the north swell wrap will see a rise coinciding with the north swell.
