Swell Summary
A reinforcing north-northwest swell, similar in size to the swell that peaked yesterday morning, is timed to reach the islands later this afternoon or evening. This swell will lift north and west-facing shore surf close to High Surf Advisory levels during its peak tonight. This swell will fall from Saturday afternoon into early Monday, followed by a quick hitting smaller pulse Monday.
Fresh to strong trades has produced a rough chop along most eastern facing exposures and these rough conditions will persist through Saturday night. Nearshore PacIOOS buoys are depicting high easterly energy in the lower spectral bands; around 6 feet at under 9 second periods today. Trades may strengthen a touch more later tonight into early Saturday. If so, the local easterly fetch over and just upstream of the islands, in tandem with a northwest swell wrap, may produce elevated near advisory eastern shore surf of near 10 feet. Despite some northerly swell wrap by the middle of next week, weakened trades will allow wind wave surf to subside to seasonable heights next week.
