Swell Summary
Surf along south facing shores will slowly build through the day, with heights expected to reach the advisory level tonight through Monday as the swell peaks. A downward trend is anticipated Tuesday through midweek, with mainly a mix of the fading south-southwest swell and a small, medium-period southeast swell. A fresh long-period south swell is expected to arrive Thursday night into Friday, then peak late Friday into Saturday. Surf along north-facing shores will remain up slightly through the first half of the week as small north to north-northwest pulses move through. A return of summertime conditions is expected along north facing shores later in the week. Surf along east facing shores will trend up by midweek as the trades become established locally and upstream across the eastern Pacific.
