Swell Summary

Surf along exposed north and west facing shores quickly increased overnight as a larger than predicted north-northwest (330-340 degrees) swell filled in. Surf will respond and hold through the morning hours today, then ease later this afternoon through Friday. A fresh, north- northwest swell similar to the current one is forecast to arrive late Friday and linger into the weekend, with a third one arriving Sunday. Surf along south facing shores will briefly trend down today, but should rise slightly Friday into the weekend as a new south-southwest (200 degrees) swell arrives and moves through. Surf along east facing shores will trend up over the weekend and become rough through early next week as strong trades return.
