Swell Summary
Strong trade winds will keep east shore surf elevated and well above normal through early next week. Surf along east facing shores will lower to near or below normal levels around the middle of next week as the trades back off. Surf along north and west facing shores will remain small and well below normal through the weekend. A small northwest and a small north swell will give surf a boost along north and west facing shores Monday through Wednesday. A new large northwest swell could bring warning level surf to north and west facing shores late next week. Surf along south facing shores will remain small with only background south swell energy through the middle of next week. A new small south swell could give south shore surf a slight boost late next week.
