Swell Summary
A long period, large to extra-large northwest swell will continue to fill in this morning and peak in the first half of the day. The swell is expected to decline through tonight but remain elevated through the early next week as a reinforcing northwest swell should arrive late Saturday night. South shore surf will remain tiny through Saturday. A south swell arriving Sunday should produce a slight increase in the surf that is expected to persist through Monday. East shore surf will also remain small through early next week.
