Swell Summary
A combination of small medium-long period south and small period southeast swells will keep small surf in place along south facing shores through early next week.
Surf along north facing shores will likely remain small through Wednesday. A small medium period north-northwest swell will build Wednesday night and Thursday, giving north shore surf a noticeable boost by late Thursday. A re-inforcing medium period north- northwest swell will arrive late Friday and Friday night, boosting north shore surf up close to advisory levels this weekend. This swell will slowly lower and become more northerly early next week.
East shore surf will gradually lower during the next couple days, with minimal surf expected Friday through early next week.
