Swell Summary

Surf along S facing shores will remain elevated through early next week due to overlapping long-period SSW swells. The first swell has peaked. However, a second SSW swell will fill in during Sunday, peaking early next week slightly lower than the present swell. The High Surf Advisory has been extended through Sunday. Surf along north facing shores will steadily lower through the weekend, with a return to a more typical pattern for this time of year next week. Surf along east facing shores will remain well below average through the weekend. An upward trend is possible next week as the trades return.
