Swell Summary
PacIOOS buoys at Barber's Point and Kaumalapau (Lanai) indicate rather steady significant wave heights through today. However, energy in the longer periods has nonetheless begun to fall off and is indicative of surf having fallen below the advisory threshold this afternoon. The High Surf Advisory has therefore been cancelled. This swell will gradually subside through the week. S shores then get a modest bump this weekend in response to a small long period pulse emanating from the S Hemisphere. Surf along E shores remains small for the next several days as building trades remain on the lighter side. Short period chop increases this weekend as stronger trades develop. Surf along N and W shores remains tiny.
