Swell Summary

A series of small to moderate, long-period northwest to north- northwest swells (320-340 degrees) will fill in throughout the week, keeping surf along north and west facing shores elevated. The current northwest swell (320-330 degrees) is currently declining and will be reinforced by another small long period northwest swell (330 degrees) tomorrow evening. This next swell will peak near average late Tuesday before subsiding Wednesday afternoon. A moderate, long- period swell (330-340 degrees) could produce advisory level surf for north and west facing shores late Wednesday into Thursday. Another slightly larger, moderate, long- period swell (330-340 degrees) will fill in Friday through Saturday, keeping surf elevated along north and west facing shores above advisory levels.

Background, medium- to long-period south to southwest swells will continue to filter into the area through the week, keeping surf along south facing shores from going flat. Small, choppy surf along east facing shores will increase and become rough for the latter half of the week as the trades strengthen.
