Swell Summary

Moderate north and east-facing shore surf continues to be generated by a short period northeast (040 degree) swell which will gradually diminish tonight and Thursday. Breezy winds will also bring rough conditions to east facing shores through Thursday, but will decline through the rest of the week.

The next small, medium-period northwest swell will arrive this weekend to bring a small bump in surf for north and west facing shores. Along south facing shores, expect small reinforcements to sustain small surf through the week.
