Swell Summary

A new small to moderate, medium period northwest swell has arrived at the buoys, resulting in a rise of surf along exposed north and west facing shores that will linger through Friday. Expect choppy conditions along south facing shores due to persistent southerly winds mixed with small, long period south swells through the week. Surf along east facing shores is expected to remain below average also due to persistent southerly winds.
