Swell Summary
An extra-large, long-period northwest swell will spread down the island chain, peaking overnight tonight on Kauai and Oahu, on Maui Friday morning, and on the Big Island on Friday. High tide will occur Thursday evening on Kauai and Oahu, coinciding with the peak of the swell on Kauai. Ocean water will surge across beaches and coastal benches, creating the potential for impacts to coastal properties and infrastructure, including roadways.
The swell will gradually diminish Friday into Saturday, but a new, large, medium- to long-period north swell is expected to arrive Saturday night into Sunday, pushing surf heights close to warning levels along north facing shores. This swell will gradually diminish Monday and Tuesday. A moderate, medium-period northwest swell is possible Wednesday and Thursday.
