Swell Summary

Observations at nearshore PacIOOS buoys south of the islands show that the long period forerunners have filled in overnight. Surf along south facing shores will peak through the day near summer averages before declining slowly over the weekend. Surf heights will return to background levels by early next week along south facing shores.

Surf along north facing shores will see a small, short period swell expected to arrive late this weekend. This swell will be overshadowed by longer period energy out of the northwest generated by a storm force low developing near Kamchatka that will arrive around the first half of next week. This swell could produce surf along north facing shores near the September average of 4 to 6 feet during its peak. Below average surf expected to continue along east facing shores due to gentle to moderate trade winds persisting through early next week.
