Long-period SSW swell is still near high-end advisory size. Early morning stays glassy with sparse but punchy 2× overhead sets at the best peaks, while typical waves run overhead. Expect long lulls between pulses. With the tide dropping toward a 10:10a low, some spots will feel faster, racier sections on the shallows.

The solid SSW swell holds with well-overhead to 2× overhead sets, but a light SE onshore breeze adds bump and some crumble. Long lulls continue. Draining tide through mid-morning then a slow rise late in the window; still plenty of push on the bigger pulses despite the texture.

  • Typical waves:overhead
  • Sets:2× overhead, lully
  • Surface:choppy
  • Wind:150° 8kt
  • Tide:▽0.1ft 10:10a

Swell eases a notch but remains strong with well-overhead sets. Onshore SE breeze keeps it choppy at most south-facing spots. Expect longer waits between the best pulses. The afternoon high tide near 5:07p will add water to the lineup and can increase shorebreak run-up in exposed areas.

  • Typical waves:head
  • Sets:2× overhead, lully
  • Surface:choppy
  • Wind:150° 8kt
  • Tide:▲2.3ft 5:07p

Gradual fade continues into the evening with well-overhead sets still in the mix. SE onshore flow maintains a choppy surface, though occasional cleaner laps between gusts are possible. Around and after the 5:07p high tide, expect fuller lines and periodic shorewater run-up. Lulls remain noticeable between the bigger pulses.

  • Typical waves:head
  • Sets:well-overhead, lully
  • Surface:choppy
  • Wind:150° 8kt
  • Tide:▲2.3ft 5:07p

SSW swell eases but remains solid. Light NE trades turn it cleaner with well-overhead sets on the better peaks and head-high typical waves. Long-period lulls persist. The tide trends toward an 11:00a low, so earlier gets a bit more push; expect slightly racier sections near the late-morning low.

  • Typical waves:shoulder
  • Sets:well-overhead, lully
  • Surface:clean
  • Wind:050° 7kt
  • Tide:▽0.3ft 11:00a

    • 162° 0.8ft 7s

Further easing through the afternoon with overhead sets lingering. A returning SE seabreeze adds chop and some crumble, while short-period SE energy mixes in. The 5:39p high tide will fatten things and enhance shorewash at times. Sets remain spaced out, so patience still pays.

  • Typical waves:chest
  • Sets:overhead, lully
  • Surface:choppy
  • Wind:140° 8kt
  • Tide:▲2.1ft 5:39p
  • Spectrum:
    • 189° 2.9ft 14s
    • 160° 1.1ft 5s

Hazards: A High Surf Advisory remains for south-facing shores; expect powerful long-period sets and enhanced shorebreak/run-up near afternoon high tides. Weather-wise, Tropical Storm Henriette passing north keeps winds light/variable trending SE sea-breeze today, with haze at times. The long-period S swell will gradually ease Monday, with cleaner conditions in the morning under light NE flow before seabreezes return.

Looking ahead, the south swell continues a slow fade to background pulses Tuesday and beyond. Trades strengthen Tuesday into midweek, then become breezier late week, adding chop. A modest, short-to-medium-period NE pulse may arrive around Thursday, but south shore surf stays on the small side after the current event.
