Swell Summary
Surf along north facing shores should see a small pulse from the northwest fill in late Sunday and peak on Monday. A similar pulse from the northwest is possible Wednesday night into Thursday. Into the long range, a series of small to moderate swells from the north is possible next Friday into the weekend.
Surf along east facing shores will continue to remain large, rough, and choppy through Sunday night coinciding with the strong trade winds. Surf should steadily decrease next week as the trade winds ease.
Surf along south facing shores is expected to remain small through the forecast period. Shorelines exposed to the easterly wind wave on south and north facing shores may continue to see an uptick over the weekend.
