Surf will remain elevated but a gradual decline in surf heights is expected Thursday and Friday. A new reinforcement small to moderate long period northwest (310-320 degree) swell, is expected to arrive late Friday with another slightly larger reinforcement from the same direction Sunday night and Monday.
South facing shores will remain slightly elevated with the fading southwest swell through today. Short period trade wind swell will be below seasonal average through Thursday and will likely pick up Friday through the weekend as trade winds increase.
