Swell Summary
The current long-period northwest swell has come down enough that the High Surf Advisory has been cancelled. A reinforcing northwest swell should arrive late tonight, with surf along north and west facing shores returning to near-advisory level late Sunday through early next week. Another long-period northwest swell reinforcement may push surf up to advisory levels Wednesday, before declining through the end of the week.
South shore surf will remain tiny through the forecast period, except for a slight boost Sunday through Tuesday as a new long- period south swell moves through. East shore surf will also remain small through early next week, with a slight increase possible during the middle to latter part of the upcoming week as trades increase over and upstream of the state.
