Swell Summary

A series of south swells will move in over the weekend into next week and will bring a prolonged period of above average surf along south facing shores. Forerunners from the first swell could arrive as early as Friday, but should steadily fill in throughout the day Saturday and peak late Saturday into Sunday. A reinforcing pulse should arrive on Monday and will likely maintain surf heights near or just below the High Surf Advisory threshold of 10 feet. Surf heights should gradually trend down Tuesday through Wednesday as the south- southwest (200 degree) swell declines. Another south swell is expected Thursday into Friday of next week.

Surf along exposed east-facing shores will continue to remain rough and choppy with a slight increase towards the weekend as the trades strengthen slightly. Surf along north-facing shores should see a boost late Sunday into early next week as a 3 to 4 foot northwest swell fills in. This swell should be reinforced by a smaller west- northwest to northwest swell towards the middle of next week.
