Swell Summary

The current large long-period northwest swell should peak tonight then gradually decline over the next few days. A reinforcing northwest to north-northwest swell generated by a compact low passing north of the islands today should arrive Thursday night and could help maintain advisory level surf through parts of the day Friday. A much larger extra-large west-northwest to northwest swell is expected to quickly fill in Saturday evening and peak Saturday night into Sunday. Giant surf will be possible during the peak of this swell along north facing exposures.

Surf along east facing shores will remain small through the weekend due to the lighter winds. Select south facing shores could see some westerly wrap from the extra large northwest swell on Sunday.
