Swell Summary
Elevated surf along north and west shores will hold through tonight with a subtle fall Friday and more significant drop this weekend as the current north-northwest swell declines. A much larger, long- period northwest swell, originating from a deep hurricane-force low developing over the northwest Pacific later this week, is scheduled to reach the islands sometime around the middle of next week. This swell will likely bring surf along north and west facing shores to high surf warning levels late next week. Rough, choppy surf will continue along east facing shores through Friday in response to the recent and ongoing strong trades, then subside this weekend as the trades fall off.
