HIGH SURF ADVISORY FOR NORTH AND EAST FACING SHORES

Swell Summary

A large north (340 to 360 degrees) swell will gradually decline over the next couple of days as it shifts more out of the north-northeast (360 to 020 degrees). Surf along most north facing shores and some windward/east shores exposed to the north swell will lower to borderline advisory heights by Monday morning. A moderate, long period northwest swell will arrive late Monday and continue through Friday, with peak surf below advisory levels. Similarly sized pulses of northwest and north-northeast swell are possible next weekend. East shores will experience some wrapping north swell during the couple of days, followed by moderate, short period wind swell through the rest of the week. South shores will remain seasonably small.
