Swell Summary
Medium period WNW (290-310) swell peaks late this afternoon into this evening then subsides through Thursday. Surf will remain elevated near the High Surf Advisory (HSA) threshold during this time and the HSA for north and west facing shores in good shape with no changes needed. Susceptible portions of the Big Island experiencing minor overwash of low-lying roads and beach inundation should see impacts ease as the evening progresses. A large medium to borderline long period NW (300-310) swell arrives early next week resulting in similar coastal inundation hazards. A combination of chop and short period fresh swell is impacting south- facing zones due to elevated southerly winds.
