Swell Summary
A medium period north (360 to 010 degrees) swell will continue to decline over the next 48 hours, as a moderate long period northwest swell (320 to 330 degrees) fills in. Low, long period forerunners from the new northwest swell are being picked up at NOAA buoy 51001 and the PacIOOS Waimea buoy. This swell will build down the island chain tonight and Tuesday and linger through Friday, with resulting surf below High Surf Advisory levels. A similarly sized northwest swell and a small north-northeast swell are possible this weekend. East shores will experience some wrapping north swell through tomorrow, followed by moderate, short period wind swell through Friday and potentially higher seas this weekend. South shores will remain seasonably small.
