Swell Summary
The current short to moderate period, north-northeast (020-030 degrees) swell is shifting to become more northeasterly (030-050 degrees). Large surf will persist along east facing shores, and the High Surf Advisory for east facing shores has been extended through Thursday afternoon. Northeast swell energy should decline on Thursday as local trade winds begin to decline, with east shore surf steadily dropping Friday through the weekend.
A small, long period northwest (320 degree) swell will fill in tonight into Wednesday, keeping surf along north and some west facing shores elevated but below advisory levels.
The current small, long period south swell will peak tonight, keeping surf near or slightly above November averages. It will begin to fade by late Wednesday, with south shore surf returning to near flat Friday into the weekend.
