This will push surf heights into the advisory range for Saturday as the swell peaks, then slowly lowering through Monday. Another northwest swell is slated to arrive Tuesday morning with solid advisory conditions expected Tuesday into Wednesday. South shore surf will remain very small today, with a small boost possible tonight into the weekend. Small surf will continue along east facing shores into early next week.
