Surf along south facing shores will likely hover just below high surf advisory criteria late today into Sunday. Additional pulses of south swell arriving early next week will persist through the middle of the week, with the potential for a larger swell by next weekend.
A small, late season northwest swell will arrive early next week and bring a minor bump up in surf to north and northwest facing shores.
