Swell Summary

The current south swell will continue to decline through much of Sunday, but another moderate, long period south swell is expected to arrive late Sunday into Monday. This could boost surf along south facing shores back up to near advisory levels early next week. Another long period south swell is forecast to arrive during the second half of the week.

East shore surf will remain elevated and choppy through most of the day on Sunday due to locally strong trade winds, then begin to lower slightly as trades slowly ease from late Sunday onward.

A small, long period northwest swell originating from Typhoon Krosa in the western Pacific will bring a small bump up in surf along north facing shores Sunday into early next week. Another boost is possible Wednesday night into Thursday.
