Swell Summary
Surf along exposed north and west-facing shores will hold at moderate levels through this evening as a northwest swell lingers, with a gradual decrease expected later tonight through Monday as the swell eases. By Tuesday, increasing long-period west-northwest swell (330) will begin filling in, driven by a decent-sized fetch developing over the far northwest Pacific. Surf will rise accordingly, with a significant upward trend anticipated through the second half of next week. Heights could exceed warning- levels (XL: 25-39 ft faces) late next week if conditions evolve as projected.
Surf along east-facing shores will remain rough through the weekend, but will gradually decrease late Sunday and into much of next week as the trade winds diminish. Surf along south-facing shores will remain near seasonal averages.
