Swell Summary

A series of small, medium period north and northwest swells will keep some modest surf in place along north and west facing shores through Sunday. The northwest swell energy will decline Monday, with little to no northwest swell expected Tuesday through Thursday with a small medium period northwest swell arriving late Friday.

Surf along east facing shores will remain choppy through Monday. Strengthening trades in combination with the arrival of a large northeast swell will give east shore surf a sizable boost, likely to advisory levels, from Monday night through Thursday. Small mainly background south swell energy is expected through middle of next week.
