Swell Summary

A new small south- southwest swell is expected to build through the day. The swell looks to peak Saturday slightly above the summer average, then slowly decline Sunday into early next week. Otherwise, several small pulses from the south are expected next week which should keep surf from going flat along south facing shores.

A few tiny pulses from the north-northwest are expected during the next few days and will likely keep the surf from going completely flat along north facing shores through the weekend. Short-period wind waves generated by the trade winds will gradually decline through Friday as the trades ease. Small, long- period east swells from increased east Pacific tropical cyclone activity may arrive over the weekend, leading to a subtle increase in surf heights.
