Swell Summary

Moderate to long period NW (310-320) swell brought an early morning peak to N and W facing shores as indicated by the PacIOOS Buoy at Waimea Bay where observations hovered near the High Surf Advisory (HSA) threshold for much of the day. During the last few hours, energy has begun to consolidate in the lower energy bands even as the observed significant wave height remains rather steady. As such, the HSA will be expired this afternoon. Small, medium period S swell continues through the week with minor longer period pulses arriving tonight and Saturday. E shores remain small throught he near term, but will see increasing short period action as trades strengthen mid-week.
