Swell Summary
Recent nearshore buoy observations show a continued decline of the current north-northwest (330-340 deg) swell. Surf heights have now lowered enough to cancel the High Surf Advisory for all remaining shores. As this swell continues to fade and become more northwesterly (320 deg), an overlapping medium-period north (360-010 deg) swell will arrive tonight, keeping surf heights elevated through Friday. Yet another northwest (320 deg) swell will arrive late Friday. This one will boost surf heights again through the weekend and potentially reach advisory level for north and west facing shores as it peaks on Saturday.
Surf along east facing shores will be rough and choppy through Thursday, especially over the eastern half of the state, due to the stronger trades. A downward trend is expected through the second half of the week as the winds diminish. Small surf will continue along south facing shores with only small background swell energy in the forecast.
