Swell Summary
Advisory-level surf associated with a WNW swell will continue along north and west facing shores of the western islands in addition to west facing shores of Lanai and the Big Island this evening. A reinforcing, larger WNW swell arriving tonight into Tuesday will increase surf to well above advisory levels Tuesday, including along north facing shores of Maui as well. Surf from this swell will peak near warning levels Tuesday night and then gradually decline Wednesday and Thursday. A large north-northeast swell is possible later in the week, which could lead to rising surf for exposed north and east facing shores. A moderate northwest swell is possible by the weekend. Surf along south facing shores will remain rough into tonight, then ease Tuesday through midweek.
