Swell Summary
Surf along exposed north and west facing shores will remain up into Thursday, due to a mix of a medium-period west-northwest swell and a couple of fading, shorter period north-northwest and north-northeast swells. The current west-northwest swell has peaked and will hold through tonight, then lower Wednesday through Thursday. Toward the end of the week, a large long-period west-northwest swell is expected. Surf heights could reach warning levels for north and west facing shores late Friday into early Saturday before easing during the remainder of the weekend. Surf along east facing shores will remain up through the weekend due to a lingering short-period north-northeast swell and a short-period northeast swell expected late Thursday through the weekend. Surf along south-facing shores will trend up this weekend through the first week of December due to overlapping out-of-season south-southwest swells.
