Swell Summary
The current long period northwest swell will continue to decline today. The forerunners of the next significant northwest swell will move into the islands by Thursday night, and then swiftly build above warning thresholds along exposed north and west facing shores from late Friday into Saturday, then falling to advisory thresholds by Sunday. Another medium period northwest swell is forecast to fill in from Tuesday to Wednesday of next week, keeping surf heights elevated along north and west facing shores.
ARTICLE CONTINUES BELOW AD ARTICLE CONTINUES BELOW AD Surf along south facing shores will remain very small through this afternoon. An out of season long period south swell boost will develop from tonight into Thursday, peaking by Friday, and slowly lowering through the weekend. PacIOOS buoy observations located in American Samoa peaked well above model guidance, suggesting surf may peak near or just below High Surf Advisory levels.
Surf along east facing shores will slowly decline through the end of the week as trade winds diminish. A small north swell could potentially elevate surf along exposed shorelines on Wednesday and Thursday.
