.DISCUSSION...
South facing shores will remain small through Friday, then reach near
summer averages this weekend as a new long-period southwest swell
arrives from the Tasman Sea, along with a new small short-period
south-southeast swell. Surf along east facing shores will continue to
remain rough and choppy due to the fresh to locally strong trade winds
and a small short-period northeast swell that is expected to fill in
this weekend. Surf along north facing shores will remain nearly flat
through the weekend.

the forecast will occur periodically, sometimes up to a few hours
apart. Expect to encounter rip currents in or near the surf zone,
with rip current strength increasing with surf size. Swimmers are
urged to exercise caution at all times and enter the water near a
lifeguard.
