Our current south-southwest swell begins to fade on Saturday while a new southwest starts to fill in. A couple of swells are due in early next week as well.
Out of the North Pacific conditions will be pretty flat, just a little trade swell wrap expected. Models are showing a new swell next Thursday/Friday.
Trade swell it expected through the next few days in the knee/thigh high range.
Keep in mind, surf heights are measured on the face of the wave from trough to crest. Heights vary from beach to beach, and at the same beach, from break to break.
