Swell Summary

Therefore, the High Surf Advisory has been cancelled. Winds will shift shift westerly and diminish early next week as the storm gains increasing distance far to the north of the islands. Additionally, a small long-period south swell will result in a slight bump in south shore surf Tuesday.
