Swell Summary
Outlook through Thursday February 08: The current northwest swell will begin subsiding tomorrow as a larger northwest swell arrives. The new swell will likely produce warning level surf by Friday night and continuing through Saturday night. Advisory level surf is expected through the weekend. The swell will gradually subside through Thursday.
Surf heights are forecast heights of the face, or front, of waves. The surf forecast is based on the significant wave height, the average height of the one third largest waves, at the locations of the largest breakers. Some waves may be more than twice as high as the significant wave height. Expect to encounter rip currents in or near any surf zone.
