Small surf will prevail on north facing shores through most of the week, with a small bump possible this weekend. East shore surf will remain well below normal through Wednesday. As trade winds ramp up Thursday through the weekend, surf along east facing shores will rise back to seasonal levels and will be quite rough Friday through the weekend.
