Swell Summary
A long-lived south swell will affect the islands this weekend. Although the swell will persist for the next several days, surf should continue to trend down as the period declines. Another series of overlapping, long-period south swells will give another sizable boost to south shore surf Wednesday through late next week.
A small, reinforcing short-period north-northwest swell will increase north and west shore surf through this morning, then decline later today into Sunday. A new small, long-period northwest swell will build Sunday night, giving north shore surf a boost early next week. Surf along east facing shores will be well below normal levels through the middle of next week.
