Swell Summary
A moderate, medium period, north-northeast (040-060 degree) swell will continue to veer easterly and decline tonight. A small, long period, northwest (310 degree) swell will build late tonight, peak Wednesday, then slowly decline through Friday. Forerunners for the next significant large, long period north-northwest swell (330 degree) is expected to arrive Friday night and peak Saturday. This swell will likely produce warning level surf along exposed north and west facing shores. Another, large to extra large, north-northwest swell may fill in early next week with surf heights peaking well into warning levels.
A High Surf Advisory remains in effect for exposed east facing shores through tonight due to the combination of the northeast swell mentioned above and rough easterly swell generated by the local and upstream easterly winds. Surf should drop below advisory levels Wednesday.
