Swell Summary
Surf along exposed north- and west-facing shores will remain at advisory levels into Friday as overlapping west-northwest and north- northwest swells move through. As such a High Surf Advisory is in effect for north and west facing shores of Niihau, Kauai and Oahu through 6am Friday. Guidance shows the swell easing late Friday into the weekend, with a small, long- period northwest swell arriving late Saturday. Surf along east-facing shores will remain small into next week due to the lack of persistent trade winds locally and upstream.
