Swell Summary
Decreasing southerly winds will lead to declining surf along southern shores tonight and a return to smoother, less choppy conditions. However, surf remains moderate on Saturday with a sustained medium- period south swell. Continued pulses of southerly swell will keep surf along south facing shores at least small through mid-next week.
Along north facing shores, a moderate, short-period northwest swell will bring a quick jump of small to moderate surf to north and west facing shores which peaks on Saturday before slowly diminishing into early next week.
Surf along east facing shores remains below seasonal average with lighter than average trade winds forecast through next week.
