Swell Summary
Nearshore buoys saw a quick rise during the day today due to the reinforcing NNE swell and is now starting to level off with deep water swell of around 6 to 8 feet. This swell is likely peaking through this evening and should slowly decline later tonight into Saturday. Another small to moderate north swell should fill in on Sunday and peak on Monday then gradually decline.
A new long-period south swell will continue to fill in tonight and peak on Saturday then slowly decline through early next week. Surf along east facing shores will continue to remain at advisory thresholds through Saturday. Surf will likely drop below advisory thresholds by Saturday night, but the combination of strengthening trades and a small long-period east swell from Tropical Cyclone Kristy should continue to produce rough and elevated surf along east facing shores throughout next week. After a few days of strong trades, surf could build to advisory thresholds of 10 feet along east facing shores by the middle of next week.
