Swell Summary
A moderate, medium-period northwest swell (320 deg) will build down the island chain through Saturday, increasing surf along north and west facing shores. Surf will reach low end advisory levels by day break Saturday morning, and then lower slightly as we head into the Sunday, but remain elevated due to another northerly pulse set to arrive Sunday night. A larger, moderate-period northwest swell (320 deg) is forecast to move through the local waters Tuesday through the middle of next week, peaking well above advisory level, then becoming more northerly (340-350 deg) as it slowly decreases heading into Thursday. Surf along east facing shores will become rough and choppy early next week as easterly trades return. Only small background swells are expected through the forecast period.
