Swell Summary
Surf along north-facing shores will trend down Thursday into Friday. An upward trend is expected Friday night through the weekend, with heights potentially nearing advisory levels for exposed north and west facing shores Saturday night through Sunday as the swell peaks. A downward trend is expected early next week as the swell fades. Surf along east-facing shores will remain rough through the rest of the week due to the strong trades. Surf along south-facing shores will remain small, with mainly a mix of short-period southeast and background long-period south swell energy.
