Overlapping large to extra-large long-period northwest swells will maintain warning level surf along most north and west facing shores through Thursday. Surf heights will likely be the largest on Wednesday. Northwest swell will gradually diminish from Thursday into the weekend, with surf falling below High Surf Advisory heights by Saturday.
