Swell Summary
The current large, long period south swell appears to have peaked. The wrap from this long period south swell is providing a boost in surf height along exposed west facing shores. Surf heights are expected to slowly subside later today through weekend. A smaller, long period south swell is expected to fill in over the weekend, keeping surf near seasonal average.
Small surf along north facing shores will continue to dwindle as the last remaining fragments of the current northwest swell moves out. A small, medium period north swell may begin to fill in late tomorrow night. Another small, slightly longer period northwest swell may overlap over the weekend providing an additional small boost in surf for north and west facing shores. Surf along east facing shores will remain smaller than average. The one exception will be for areas exposed to the south swell.
