Swell Summary
The existing small northwest swell will continue to fade, but a new slightly larger long-period northwest swell is forecast to build in overnight, peak Saturday night or Sunday, then fade through early next week. Surf along north and west facing shores is expected to remain small for the coming week.
Multiple small early season south swells will maintain small background southerly energy into the coming week. Weak upstream trade wind flow will keep surf along east facing shores near or below seasonal averages.
Light mainly southeast flow will continue into Tuesday. Trade winds will eventually return midweek.
