Northwest, north swells to peak over weekend

Advertiser Staff

The winter waves aren't too high right now, with surf along the North Shore 6 to 9 feet and expected to remain below the advisory level when it peaks over the weekend, the National Weather Service said.

But take heart, big-wave hunters, because the extended surf forecast calls for a northern swell on Tuesday that could push surf over the warning levels of 25 feet on the North Shore.

Also, a small south swell is expected Saturday and will continue through Tuesday

The rest of today's forecast calls for surf along west shores to remain at 3 to 5 feet and surf along south shores to remain at 2 to 4 feet and surf along eastern shores will be 1 to 3 feet.
