Swell Summary

Small surf will hold along south facing shores today as the current small south- southeast swell slowly declines. A small south-southwest swell will fill in tonight, which should maintain small surf along south facing shores through the work week. Into the long range, a deep low pressure system currently southeast of New Zealand will send a decent run of south swells beginning this weekend. Surf heights may reach advisory thresholds of 10 feet along south facing shores during its peak Sunday into Monday.

Surf along east facing shores will steadily increase during the second half of the week as the trades strengthen locally and upstream of the state. North shore surf remains flat to tiny, typical for this time of year.
