Swell Summary

No significant swells are expected from any direction for the remainder of the week. A series of small, medium period south southeast swells will produce fun south-facing shore waist to chest high surf. A recent small fetch of strong northeast winds off the U.S. Pacific Northwest coast has generated a small, medium period northeast swell. This swell is scheduled to arrive Sunday and reinforce the resident short period wind wave swell. Some of this northeast swell will wrap into more northern exposures.
