Swell Summary
Surf along south-facing shores will remain up through Monday as a medium-period south-southwest swell moves through. The nearshore and offshore buoy observations show the peak energy holding in the 13-14 second bands this morning. A downward trend is expected Tuesday through midweek, with mainly background southerly pulses expected. A similarly-sized south- southwest swell is possible next weekend.
Surf along north and west-facing shores will trend up late Sunday through Monday as an out-of-season, small north-northwest swell arrives. Small north-northwest pulses could persist through a good portion of the upcoming week due to broad low pressure near the Aleutians.
Surf along east-facing shores will pick up slightly later this weekend through early next week as the trades increase. Although confidence is low at this time, guidance is hinting at a medium- to long-period easterly swell arriving late next week through next weekend due to tropical activity across the far eastern Pacific.
