Swell Summary
The current small south swell is expected to gradually decline over the next few days. Small background energy from the southeast expected through Saturday. A more significant south swell will arrive late Sunday and Sunday night, peaking above the summertime average Monday, and then slowly lower through the middle of next week.
Seasonally flat to tiny surf is expected through early next week for north facing shores, with the possibility of the arrival of a swell during the second half of the week from Typhoon Ampil currently near Japan. East shore surf will trend to seasonal averages through the next week.
