Swell Summary
Outlook through Tuesday December 04: Warning level surf from a large, northwest swell will slowly subside today, then lower to advisory levels through Wednesday. A moderate northwest swell is possible Friday and into the upcoming weekend. Surf will remain small along south and east facing shores.
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.
