Swell Summary
A series of south swells will keep south shore surf near the summertime average through Saturday. Surf will lower below normal levels much of next week. A small background south swell could give south shore surf a slight bump around the middle of next week.
Typical mostly flat summertime conditions will continue along north facing shores through next week.
East shore surf will remain well below normal through the weekend, then trend up and closer to seasonal levels next week as the trades strengthen over and upstream of the islands.
