Swell Summary

Large and rough conditions will continue through the weekend along east facing shores due to advisory level surf and strong easterly trade winds. Surf along exposed north facing shores will rise through the day today as a fresh north-northwest swell arrives. This swell will peak by tonight, then lower Friday into the weekend. A northwest swell will arrive by the end of the weekend, then peak early next week.
