Swell Summary
Rough and choppy surf along east facing shores will continue into the weekend due to the trade winds upstream of the islands. South facing shores are seeing a bump as a long period southwest (210-220 degree) swell arrives in the islands. This swell is expected to peak later today, and then subside through Friday. Models suggest another long period swell (220 degree) will arrive late in the weekend, with another long period swell possible next week.
