.DISCUSSION... A small, short-period, NW swell slowly diminishes into
the weekend. A small, medium-period, S swell will boost surf along S
shores through late week and subside over the weekend. Surf along E
shores remains below the seasonal average as trades remain light.
Increasing trades by week`s end then brings a slight bump to surf.

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.
