Swell Summary

Surf along south facing shores will gradually rise later today and tonight as a long-period, south-southwest swell arrives. This south swell will peak early in the week, then begin to lower by midweek. Surf along north and west facing shores will trend up tonight into Monday as a small, west-northwest swell builds down the island chain. Surf along exposed east facing shores will remain small through Tuesday, then potentially rise later in the week as a north-northeast swell arrives.
