Swell Summary
Surf along north and west facing shores will remain small through midweek, with mainly background, short-period northwest swells moving through. A significant northwest (320 degrees) swell is expected to arrive late Wednesday night, peak Thursday, then ease Friday into the weekend. Surf will quickly rise and exceed warning levels for exposed north and west facing shores early Thursday through Friday, then likely remain up above advisory levels through the weekend as a large, medium-period north swell arrives Saturday night. Surf along east facing shores will begin to trend up over the weekend as breezy trades return.
