Swell Summary
Existing long period S swell is slowly subsiding, the bulk of energy now shifting toward the 13 to 15 second bands per the latest buoy observations. The High Surf Advisory (HSA) is no longer in effect, though surf will still approach the HSA threshold in favored areas at times, particularly during the first half of tonight. This swell will then slowly decline during the latter half of the week, dropping to background levels Friday into the weekend. Surf remains choppy along east facing shores due to trades and is also experiencing a very modest bump from a small NE swell. North facing exposures may see a tiny bump from the combination of a small, medium period northwest swell and the small northeast swell mentioned above tonight into Wednesday but will quickly fade Wednesday night.
