Swell Summary
A series of large north to northwest swells will impact the state through the weekend. A new northwest swell builds into the region today and will peak above warning levels. A brief overlapping northerly swell will also arrive tonight, peaking on Friday. Warning level surf for north and west facing shores of the smaller islands today and tonight will decrease to advisory levels by Friday.
