.DISCUSSION...
Surf will steadily rise along exposed north, west, and south facing
shores today due to a combination of a long-period south-southwest
swell and a short-period north-northwest swell filling in. Heights
will likely reach the advisory level for south facing shores by the
end of today, with rough conditions expected due to a combination of
the swell and breezy onshore winds. The south-southwest swell will
peak tonight through Friday, then begin to ease into the weekend. A
fresh, long-period south-southwest swell will fill in through the day
Sunday, which supports the surf continuing through early next week as
it peaks. Surf along north facing shores will linger into Friday,
then steadily ease over the weekend. Surf along east facing shores
will trend up next week.

Surf: Height of the surf from trough to crest (face value)
in feet.
Tides: Heights displayed are relative to the Mean Lower Low

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.
