Swell Summary
A medium-period northwest swell will likely produce somewhat elevated surf along most exposed north and west facing shores later today when it peaks. This northwest swell will gradually lower from Tuesday into mid-week. A small northwest swell may arrive around Thursday or Friday, while a small north-northwest swell may spread over the area next weekend. The current small south swell will gradually subside through Tuesday. A small, reinforcing south swell may arrive in the islands around mid-week. Expect minimal surf along most east facing shores due to the lighter than normal winds this week.
