Swell Summary

The large, long period, north northwest and north swells will continue to slowly subside while shifting out of the more northeasterly direction today. As the north swells become more northeasterly (010-020), surf along east facing shores exposed to the north swell will become elevated while west facing shore surf eases Saturday. A new large, long period, northwest (320 deg) swell will arrive late Saturday and Sunday, that could boost north and west facing shores back above advisory levels into early next week.
