Swell Summary

Large surf along east facing shores continue through Friday. The easterly trade wind swell will decrease this weekend. The current northwest swell will continue to hold through Thursday. A small, short-period north-northeast swell arriving Thursday will likely continue through the weekend. A new moderate, long-period northwest swell will spread across the area late Friday, and continue through Saturday night. Northwest swell heights will slowly lower from Sunday into early next week. A small out-of-season southwest swell from the Tasman Sea will produce a slight bump in surf heights along south facing shores today. Otherwise, expect small surf along south facing shores from Thursday through the weekend.
