Swell bringing up to 20-foot surf on northern shores

Advertiser Staff

An approaching northwest swell is expected to produce advisory-level surf across northern and western shores through 6 a.m. Tuesday, the National Weather Service said.

Northern shores will see surf 17 feet to 20 feet today and western shores will see surf 9 feet to 12 feet.

Good surf can also be found along eastern shores (3 feet to 5 feet), and southern shores (2 feet to 4 feet).

The northwest swell is expected to peak tonight and diminish slowly through Thursday. A small northwest swell will follow, but surf will be well below the advisory level.
