A series of small, medium- to long-period south swells will cause surf to trend upward along south- and west-facing shores from this weekend into early next week. A moderate, long-period south swell will peak near High Surf Advisory thresholds by midweek.

Along east-facing shores, trade wind swell will remain slightly below seasonal averages before building this weekend in response to strengthening trades. Surf along north-facing shores will remain flat to tiny through the period, though a small, medium-period north swell could bring a slight bump on Sunday.
