Swell Summary
Rough and choppy surf will prevail along east facing shores the next several days. A medium period northwest swell peaking this afternoon will gradually diminish Sunday, but another relatively small, moderate period northwest swell is expected Monday and Tuesday.
Elsewhere, the storm track in the S hemisphere recently became favorable for the generation of Hawaii-bound south swell, with pulses of swell arriving on-and-off for at least the next week. The first of these hit the Lanai buoy this afternoon and will build tonight into Sunday, with peak surf heights remaining below High Surf Advisory heights, although later swells may be large enough to warrant an advisory.
