Swell Summary

Surf along south facing shores will remain up today due to a lingering south-southwest swell moving through. A downward trend is expected through the first half of the week, with heights returning to background levels. Surf along north facing shores could trend up above the summertime flat levels on Monday as a tiny north-northwest swell arrives, then lingers into Wednesday. Surf along east facing shores will remain small through Monday, then trend up Tuesday through midweek as the trades pick up.
