Swell Summary
Surf along north and east-facing shores will remain small through the first half of the week, primarily featuring small, short- period north-northwest swell. An upward trend is expected Wednesday into the second half of the week, as a short- to medium- period north-northeast swell arrives. Heights could reach advisory levels for east-facing shores beginning late Wednesday night into Thursday, while north-facing exposures are expected to remain below advisory levels.
