Swell Summary
South facing shores will remain small the next few days with mainly background energy. A moderate long-period south swell should be filling in as early as Tuesday. This initial south swell should peak on Wednesday near or slightly above the summer average. A larger south swell should gradually fill in Wednesday into Thursday and peak late Thursday into Friday above High Surf Advisory thresholds. This swell will fade over the weekend into the following week.
East facing shores will remain small through Monday before slowly rising Tuesday through the rest of the week as trade winds increase. Southeast swell from Tropical Depression One-C will also be possible around the middle of the week. Flat summer time surf will continue along north facing shores this week. An out of season small long- period northwest swell will be possible late next weekend from Typhoon Krosa currently located in the western Pacific.
