Swell Summary
Existing medium to long-period northwest (320 degrees) swell energy will be reinforced by a larger, long-period northwest (320-330) swell later tonight. This swell is forecast to peak well above advisory levels threshold for north and west facing shores Wednesday, potentially nearing High Surf Warning thresholds late Wednesday, before fading Thursday. This swell will mix with a small, long- period north-northwest (340-350) swell that will also peak tonight into Wednesday. A High Surf Advisory has been issued for north and west facing shores of Niihau, Kauai, Oahu, and Molokai, as well as north facing shores of Maui, going into effect at 6 AM HST Wednesday.
Rough and choppy surf along east facing shores will gradually become more elevated during the second half of the week as trades become stronger locally and upstream of the islands. Surf along east facing shores is expected to build to the advisory level Thursday into Friday, then hold into the weekend. Surf along south facing shores remains small through the period, except for a small bump expected Wednesday.
