Swell Summary
Current medium period north-northwest swell will continue to decline tonight and shift to a more northerly direction. Another moderate, medium-period north to north-northeast swell will fill in on Friday especially during the afternoon and peak Friday night into Saturday morning.
With a slight increase of trade winds tonight, a subtle increase of rough and choppy surf is expected along east facing shores. A much stronger fetch of strong to near gale force trade winds will bring a significant increase of easterly wind swell Sunday into early next week, which should exceed advisory thresholds for east facing shores. Surf along south facing shores will remain tiny through the forecast period with the exception of areas exposed to the wind swell next week.
