Swell Summary
A long period NW swell peaked today bringing high surf to exposed N and W facing shores. This swell will now turn more northerly as it gradually subsides during the next 24 hours. Renewed mixed period N swell arriving Thursday night into Friday will lead to another round of high surf along N facing shores. This swell will gradually lower over the weekend.
