The current medium period northwest swell will linger today, holding surf near seasonal average for north and west facing shores, before declining tonight through Friday. By late Friday, a medium period north-northwest swell will build and once again help bring surf back to near seasonal averages through the weekend. The current medium period south swell will keep surf along south facing shores near seasonal average today. A reinforcing long period south swell is expected to produce an increase in surf Thursday into Saturday. Surf along east facing shores will remain small through Thursday as small wind waves and tiny east swell persist. Choppy surf will increase as trade winds strengthen across the region Friday into the weekend.
