Swell Summary

Surf will remain elevated through tonight for south and east facing shores at High Surf Advisory levels. South swell from Hurricane Lowell is expected to rise rapidly Monday, and peak Monday night bringing warning level surf to exposed shorelines. This swell may shift out of the southwest late Monday night. Due to the track of Lowell, a sharp gradient in swell is expected from west to east. This will bring damaging surf to portions of Kauai County and possibly Oahu. Swell energy is expected to drop off quickly on Tuesday. A large, medium-period east swell from Tropical Storm Karina will also persist through at least Monday, producing advisory level surf along east facing shores. Surf along north facing shores will remain flat except areas exposed to the storm swells.
