Swell Summary
The current small west-northwest swell will provide a slight boost in surf heights along most exposed north and west facing shores into Tuesday. This swell will fade by mid-week, with small summertime surf expected along north facing shores starting Wednesday. The current medium-period south-southwest swell will continue to produce modest surf along south facing shores into mid-week. Surf will likely drop below the summertime average along south facing shores later this week. Expect below normal surf along east facing shores early this week, with a slight increase in choppy surf possible as the trade winds strengthen around mid-week.
