Swell Summary

The current fading medium period northwest swell combined with a few short period pulses from the north-northeast will maintain surf below the October average along north-facing shores through most of the week. A small, medium period northwest swell will bring a slight uptick in surf heights on Saturday, but will be quickly overshadowed by the next, more significant moderate, long period northwest (320 degree) swell that is expected to arrive by mid day Sunday and last through early to mid next week. During its peak, surf along north- facing shores may approach High Surf Advisory criteria.

Background south-southwest swell energy will bring tiny to small surf along south-facing shores through most of the week. A small, long period south-southwest (190-200 degree) swell will fill in Thursday morning and bring a slight increase to surf along south- facing shores through late Friday, followed closely by a small, long period southwest (220 degree) swell over the weekend.

Below average surf along east-facing shores is expected for the remainder of this week as weak flow prevails. There will be a slight boost by this weekend as trades return. In addition, a small, medium to long period easterly swell from Tropical Cyclone Priscilla in the East Pacific is forecast to arrive Saturday into Sunday.
