Swell Summary
Observations at the offshore buoys northwest of Hawaii are coming in significantly larger than predicted and appears to have peaked this afternoon. This will translate to the surf peaking along exposed north and west facing shores overnight into Friday morning, which covers the daily peak high tide overnight. Significant beach erosion along with periodic overtopping of coastal roadways and properties in the typical vulnerable locations will be possible during the overnight high cycle. See the updated High Surf Warning for more details regarding impacts and precautionary actions. Surf along east facing shores will steadily lower as the north-northeast swells eases and the trades diminish. Surf along south facing shores will remain small with mainly background long-period south-southwest swell expected. Some of the typical southerly exposures could see some wrap from the large northwest swell Friday.
