.DISCUSSION...
Surf along north facing shores will remain small through midday
before a small to moderate, medium to long period northwest swell
looks to fill in this afternoon that will keep surf elevated
through the weekend. Tiny long period forerunners have started to
show up on the NDBC offshore buoy 51101 early this morning. A
moderate long period northwest swell is expected to arrive late
Tuesday, and peak Wednesday near High Surf Advisory (HSA) levels
before declining by the end of next week.
Surf along east facing shores will continue to decline through
the weekend due to the weakening of the local and upstream trade
winds. Large choppy short period surf for north and exposed east
shores is possible by the middle of next week depending on the
evolution of the potential trough and approaching cold front
mentioned above. For south shores, tiny background southerly
swell will remain through the forecast period.

Product Legend:
Surf: Height of the surf from trough to crest (face value)
in feet.
Tides: Heights displayed are relative to the Mean Lower Low
Water (MLLW) datum in feet.
Surf heights can vary significantly from beach to beach along a
coastline. Surf larger than the upper end of the range provided in
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.
