Swell Summary
Per afternoon nearshore buoy observations, a recent small to moderate, medium period northwest (320 degree) swell has peaked and will be gradually declining through Saturday. The next moderate size, longer period northwest (320 degree) swell will arrive and begin to fill in Saturday afternoon and evening. This swell will peak surf to near High Surf Advisory (HSA) heights Sunday, then slowly subside Monday. A reinforcing north northwest (330-350 degree) swell arriving early Tuesday may lift surf well above HSA thresholds Tuesday and Wednesday. Expect the short period wind wave chop to persist along south-facing shores the next day or so in response to these recent moderate to fresh southerlies in tandem with a very small, medium period southwest background swell. Less choppy eastern shore conditions can be expected over the weekend as surf along eastern exposures is forecast to hold near seasonal levels before falling below December averages early next week. Strengthening trades during the middle of next week could boost east shore chop back up to above seasonal heights.
