Swell Summary

A long-period south swell will support surf heights above the seasonal average today, then diminish Monday through Wednesday, with small surf then prevailing along south facing shores into next weekend. The locally strong trade winds over and upstream of the islands will support short-period wind wave development that will lead to choppy surf along east facing shores, with east shore surf diminishing after midweek. Surf along north facing shores will be small for the next several days, but back-to-back medium- period north-northwest swells are expected from Thursday through Monday. Potential exists for surf heights to reach High Surf Advisory levels along exposed north facing shores with the second swell next weekend.
