Swell Summary
Surf along south facing shores will hold just under the advisory level this morning as the south-southwest swell continues to lower. The downward trend will continue through midweek, with mainly a mix of the fading south-southwest swell and a small, medium-period southeast swell. A long-period south swell is expected to arrive Thursday night into Friday, then peak late Friday into Saturday. This swell will hold through early next week as it slowly fades. Surf along east- facing shores will remain small and choppy through the week. Surf along north-facing shores will remain up above the summertime average through a good portion of the week as small, short-period north to north-northwest swells move through.
