Swell Summary
A small, medium period northwest swells will build in today across north and west facing shores and hold through Monday. This swell will decline Monday and no significant swells are expected until a small long period northwest swell is expected late Friday.
Surf along east facing shores will remain choppy through the forecast period. Strengthening trades, coinciding with a large short period northeast swell will likely push east shore surf to High Surf Advisory levels from late Monday through Wednesday. The trade wind swell will also wrap into exposed north facing shores.
Small mainly background south swell energy is expected through middle of next week. A small long period south swell could boost south shore surf up from Thursday night through Friday.
