Swell Summary

A small, medium period north northwest (320-330 degree) swell that peaked last night will continue to slowly decline tonight. Surf along north and west facing shores will follow suit, easing during the weekend.

A mix of small, medium to long period south swells will maintain small surf along south-facing shores this weekend. A series of gale lows passing south of New Zealand should send small south swell energy into the southern waters through next week. Surf should lift to summer averages around Sunday and hold through Wednesday. Moderate to fresh trades will maintain rough and choppy surf along east-facing shores.
