Rough and choppy surf along east facing shores will gradually become more elevated during the second half of the week as strong to near gale force trades further develop locally and upstream. Surf along east facing shores is expected to build to the HSA thresholds (10 feet) Thursday into Friday and hold into the weekend.

Surf along south facing shores remains small through the period except which a small bump expected Wednesday.
