Swell Summary
The current medium period northwest swell will continue to gradually decline through Friday, with minimal surf then expected through the middle of next week.
The current long-period south swell is expected to gradually lower during the next few days, however a small reinforcement arriving tonight and Friday will help to keep south shore surf elevated into early next week. Surf should drop below the summertime average along south facing shores Tuesday and Wednesday.
East shore surf should hold fairly steady at or slightly above seasonal levels through Saturday. A slight lowering of the trade wind speeds over and upstream of the islands will allow for a small decline in east shore surf Sunday and Monday. A slight boost will then be possible Tuesday and Wednesday as the trades ramp back up.
