Swell Summary
An extra large long period northwest swell will produce warning level surf for exposed north and west facing shores through Tuesday. A High Surf Warning is posted for these areas, and along with a High Surf Advisory for the west facing shores of Big Island through Tuesday. A Small Craft Advisory is also in effect through Tuesday for most coastal waters exposed to the large northwest swell.
Another extra large northwest (320-330 degree) swell will build into the region by Thursday, likely producing another round of warning level surf along exposed north and west facing shores lasting through Friday, and lingering near advisory levels Saturday before another reinforcement Sunday.
Surf along east facing shores will remain small through the first half of this week due shifting wind directions from the passing fronts, while no significant swells are expected to impact the state from the south.
