Swell Summary

The current south swell will continue to decline today with decreasing surf height trends along south facing shores. A smaller long period south swell will arrive by Saturday night. No other significant swells are expected through the rest of the week.

East facing shores remain small into Saturday as winds remain on the weaker side. Strengthening trade winds will help to boost wind wave driven choppy surf heights by Sunday. A moderate long period east swell from Hurricane Jova in the East Pacific will arrive early next week, with the forerunners reaching east facing shores as early as Sunday morning for exposed shores of the Big Island and possibly Maui. Surf heights may approach High Surf Advisory criteria for exposed east facing shores as the swell energy peaks on Monday.
