Swell Summary
Small surf will persist across most shores through tonight, followed by a building north-northeast (010-030 deg) swell on Monday. This long period swell will build rapidly during the afternoon and will produce breaking waves at High Surf Warning levels across most north and east facing shores during the peak Monday night and Tuesday. Due to the direction of the large swell, exposed west facing shores on West Maui, western Molokai, and North Kohala on the Big Island will likely experience High Surf Advisory conditions. The north-northeast swell will gradually decline Tuesday night through Friday. In addition to this swell, a small pulse of overlapping west-northwest swell is expected Monday through Wednesday.
Very small wintertime surf will continue along south facing shores this week.
