Swell Summary

Surf along north- and west-facing shores will continue to decrease through Wednesday as a moderate, north-northwest swell fades and shifts more northerly, though another small long period north- northwest reinforcement arrives tonight. Another more significant moderate, long-period northwest swell will arrive Wednesday night into Thursday morning and will likely push north and west shore surf back to advisory levels for Thursday into Friday. An additional medium-period swell moderate swell is expected to fill in on Saturday, likely prolonging moderate to large surf action into the weekend.

A tiny long-period reinforcing swell is arriving this evening, but south shore surf will be small to tiny through much of the week with little southerly background energy reaching the islands. East-facing shores will see continued moderate trade wind swell as strong northeast winds remain. Surf along east-facing shores will stay elevated and choppy through much of the week with the trades.
