Swell Summary

Choppy surf along east facing shores will gradually trend downward, falling below seasonal levels by mid-week as trade winds veer southerly through the week. Surf along north-facing shores was tiny today, with very little northwest swell energy reaching the islands. However, a series of small long period west-northwest swells returning tonight will bring small surf to north and west facing shores through the rest of the week. A small medium period north swell is also possible late this week. Surf along south-facing shores will remain small, with the exception of areas exposed to wind swell, which will increase through the week. Rough and choppy conditions develop Tuesday and continue through late week as southerly winds increase in advance of a front. A series of small long-period south swells also impacts shorelines through late this week.
