Swell Summary
Surf along north and west facing shores will remain above advisory levels through this evening and likely through the night as the current moderate, medium- to long-period northwest (310-330 degree) swell holds near its afternoon peak. The High Surf Advisory has been extended for most north and west facing shores of the smaller islands through tonight, due to swell heights at the nearshore buoys looking to be slow to decline over the next several hours. This swell will gradually veer toward the north-northwest as it lowers through early next week.
Surf along east-facing shores will remain rough into next week due to the persistent fresh to locally strong trade flow over and upstream of the islands. Trades could possibly strengthen early next week, which would further increase the windswell through at least midweek.
Surf along south-facing shores will remain small with mainly some wrap around wind swell for select exposures. A small, long-period south-southwest swell is possible next Wednesday.
