Swell Summary
A two foot, medium period south southwest (180-200) swell is filling in today and will peak tonight. This swell should maintain waist to near head high surf along southern shores as it declines through a good part of the day Sunday. A series of very similar small, medium period south swells will pass around the islands through the upcoming week. These swells will assist in upholding seasonal standard surf along many south-facing shores.
In response to this weekend's moderate to fresh trade flow, east- facing chop will remain slightly elevated through Sunday.
