.DISCUSSION...
The current moderate period south-southwest swell will continue to
decline through tonight. Expect mainly background energy along
south-facing shores on Thursday. A tiny long-period south-
southwest swell is possible this weekend. Otherwise, expect
mainly background energy through the middle of next week.
Surf along east-facing shores will remain rough and choppy the
next several days due to the fresh to locally strong trades. Surf
along north-facing shores will remain small with some background
northwest energy moving through throughout the week and into the
weekend.
