Swell Summary
An upward trend in surf along north and west facing shores is expected over the weekend as a fresh, long-period north- northwest swell arrives late tonight, then builds down the island chain. This swell will peak late Saturday through Saturday night. We are keeping the surf forecast just below advisory levels for the moment, since confidence is not high enough for a High Surf Advisory. However, will monitor the buoys as the swell arrives in case one is needed. A slow downward trend is expected by late Sunday.
Surf along exposed north and east facing shores will trend up early next week as a medium-period north-northeast swell arrives. Surf heights will likely reach the advisory levels (potentially near the warning level for east facing shores)as this swell peaks Monday through Tuesday. Otherwise, short-period/rough surf is anticipated along exposed eastern shores due to the strong trades locally and upstream.
Surf along south facing shores will potentially trend up late next week due to the arrival of a long-period south swell.
