Swell Summary
Pulses of background long period south and southwest swells will keep surf small surf along south facing shores into early next week. Back to back gale force lows east of New Zealand are expected to send a series of small, long period south swells that could begin to fill in late Tuesday and produce above average surf along south facing shores through the second half of next week. In addition tropical disturbances tracking south of the state from east to west Sunday into next week may also send a small, short to medium period south to southeast swells.
Small choppy surf along east facing shores will trend down slightly as winds locally and upstream ease.
