Swell Summary
The current northwest swell will continue to decline through the remainder of the weekend until a new moderate to large northwest swell arrives Monday. This swell could bring another round of advisory level surf to most north and west facing shores late Monday through Tuesday. This swell will then gradually lower through Thursday with a new large northwest swell possibly bringing another round of advisory level surf to north and west facing shores late next week.
A small bump in surf along south facing shores is possible tomorrow and Monday before before fading out and returning to very small levels through late next week. Surf along east facing shores will remain small through tomorrow then increase with the returning trades tomorrow night and Monday. Surf should then rise to above normal levels Tuesday through late next week as the trade winds further strengthen.
