Swell Summary
Surf along east-facing shores will remain rough through early next week due to the strong trades. Surf along south-facing shores will trend up to around average this weekend as a small south swell arrives. This should be short-lived, with a downward trend expected early next week. A similar south swell is possible late next week. Surf along north-facing shores could trend up above flat levels early next week and again later in the week as a couple of small northwest swells move through.
