.DISCUSSION...
The current short to moderate period, north-northeast (020-030
degrees) swell is shifting to become more northeasterly (030-050
degrees). Large surf will persist along east facing shores, and the
High Surf Advisory for east facing shores has been extended through
Thursday afternoon. Northeast swell energy should decline on Thursday
as local trade winds begin to decline, with east shore surf steadily
dropping Friday through the weekend.
A small, long period northwest (320 degree) swell will fill in
tonight into Wednesday, keeping surf along north and some west facing
shores elevated but below advisory levels.
The current small, long period south swell will peak tonight, keeping
surf near or slightly above November averages. It will begin to fade
by late Wednesday, with south shore surf returning to near flat Friday
into the weekend.
