Swell Summary
Surf along exposed east facing shores will remain rough through the rest of the week due to choppy wind waves. North facing shores will remain small through tonight before an upward trend is expected Friday afternoon through the weekend due to a combination of north- northeast and west- northwest swells. The north- northeast swell will fill in Friday afternoon, then peak over the weekend. The west- northwest swell is forecast to build down the island chain on Saturday and hold through Sunday night. Surf along south facing shores will see an upward trend this afternoon as a small, long- period south- southwest swell arrives. This swell will peak late Friday into Saturday, then ease Sunday.
