The National Weather Service said the surf was expected to build throughout the day Thursday, reaching advisory levels by the afternoon, as a long-period south swell fills in. Surf heights of 6-10 feet are expected.
The advisory will remain in effect until 6 p.m. Saturday. The surf is expected to start subsiding Sunday into early next week.
