Swell Summary
The current north swell will continue to slowly lower through Thursday. A new north swell will build late Thursday and Thursday night, and peak near advisory levels along north facing shores on Friday. This swell will then gradually lower through the weekend. A new north-northwest swell is forecast to build Saturday night, potentially producing advisory level surf for north facing shores late Sunday through early Monday.
A new small long period south swell will build today, boosting south shore surf up to around the summertime average late this afternoon through Saturday, before returning to mainly background levels Sunday through early next week.
East shore surf will remain well below normal during the next 7 days due to the lack of trades over and upstream of the islands.
