Swell Summary
Surf will remain above average along south facing shores through the weekend into early next week as a series of south swells filter across the area. Surf heights will exceed High Surf Advisory (HSA) criteria by Friday and hold steady through the weekend.
A moderate, medium period east swell moving in from what was once Tropical Cyclone Gil, in tandem with short period trade wind wave chop, will bring above average surf to east-facing shores through Wednesday, peaking near HSA levels tonight. Surf will gradually decline into the weekend as this swell fades.
A series of small, medium to long period northwest swells will keep surf along north facing shores from going completely flat over the next couple of days.
