Swell Summary
A new small to moderate, long period NW to NNW (320 degree to 330 degree) swell will likely peak late this afternoon into the evening and produce above average surf along north facing shores. This swell should gradually fade late tonight into the weekend.
A mix of small, medium to long period south swells will maintain small surf along south facing shores into the weekend. A series of gales passing near New Zealand should send a series of small south swells to the Hawaiian Islands all throughout next week. Surf should rise to near the summer average around Sunday and hold through the week.
Along east facing shores, locally strong trades will maintain rough and choppy surf. A slight decrease of wind swell is expected tonight into the weekend as the trades weaken to moderate to locally fresh speeds.
