Swell Summary
A small, medium-period NNW declines through tonight with surf along exposed shorelines following suit. Another medium period NNW swell will provide an additional in surf along N shores by early tomorrow morning. This will then be followed by another similarly sized pulse on Tuesday. Surf along W shores remains steady as NNW swell declines in favor a new long period SSW swell.
A mix of small medium to long period S swells maintains small surf along S facing shores for the next several days. The aforementioned long period SSW swell will favor increased surf along S facing shores through today. Additional medium to long period S swell arrive through the week. Meanwhile, trades maintain choppy short period surf and fresh easterly swell through the week.
