Swell Summary
The current short-period south swell will fade today. A small, longer period south southwest swell should fill in on Friday and peak over the weekend with surf heights near or slightly above the summer average.
The current small, short-period north-northwest swell will continue to fade out. A few small pulses from the northwest and north northwest are expected tonight into Thursday and will likely keep the surf from going completely flat along north facing shores through the weekend. Short-period wind waves generated by the trade winds will gradually decline over the next several days as the trades ease. Small, long-period east swells from increased east Pacific tropical cyclone activity may arrive from over the next few days, especially over the weekend, leading to a subtle increase in surf heights.
