Swell Summary




Surf along south-facing shores will remain below seasonal averages through much of this week. A small, long period south swell is expected to arrive Saturday, followed by a series of reinforcing south swells that will boost surf heights to near or above seasonal averages into next week. Small, medium period easterly swell from former Tropical Cyclone Genevieve continues to linger, but will gradually ease for the next couple of days. Choppy conditions will remain, generated by the moderate trade winds. No other significant swells are expected.
