Swell Summary

A pair of south-southwest swells are due this week. Expect south shore surf to peak around seasonal average tonight and early Sunday, then decline later Sunday and Monday. A smaller south-southwest swell may build on Tuesday and peak on Wednesday.

Tiny to small surf will prevail along north facing shores through midweek, mainly from northwest swell. A short period north-northeast swell will likely reach the islands on Thursday and could produce moderate surf by Friday.

East facing shores will experience near seasonal average surf through Sunday due to short period trade wind swell. Surf along east facing shores will gradually decline Monday through Wednesday, followed by a potential increase on Thursday from the above mentioned source out of the north-northeast.
