Swell Summary

A High Surf Advisory (HSA) remains in effect for most north and west-facing shores of the smaller islands through Tuesday afternoon. The current north-northwest (320-340 degrees) swell will be reinforced by the next one generated by the hurricane force low beginning tonight. This large, long-period swell will peak Tuesday and boost surf heights along north and west-facing shores to High Surf Warning (HSW) levels Tuesday morning. This swell will slowly decline Tuesday night through the remainder of the week. Strengthening trades over the next couple of days will increase east-facing shore surf and lead to rough conditions from Tuesday into the middle of the week.
