Swell Summary
Surf along exposed north and west facing shores will hold at small levels today due to a mix of a medium-period northwest swell and short-period northerly swell moving through. Expect a downward trend from both swell sources Friday into the weekend as they move out. Surf will trend back up late Saturday through the second half of the weekend as a medium-period north-northwest swell arrives and moves through. A long-period northwest swell arriving by late Monday will peak Tuesday through midweek, and could drive surf heights toward the advisory levels for north and west facing shores of the smaller islands as it peaks. An out of season south swell will hold today, then ease Friday into the weekend. Surf along east facing shores will trend up over the weekend and remain up next week as the trades return.
