Hilo side: Wave heights are expected waist/shoulder high today.
Kona side: Wave heights waist/chest high are expected today. Best breaks could get up to shoulder high or more on the sets, especially late in the day.
South: Wave heights waist/chest high are expected for the breaks open to the south-southwest. Best breaks could get up to shoulder high on the sets. Trade swell/Oho mix is expected up to waist/shoulder high.
Oho is generating a shorter period southeast shifting east swell for the Hilo side. The swell will fade over the next few days.
Our current north-northeast is fading to leftovers for Tuesday morning. New north-northwest is expected to build Wednesday, peak Thursday and begin to fade Friday into the weekend.
Our current south-southwest holds Tuesday as a bigger south-southwest builds in and peaks late Tuesday into Wednesday and fades through the end of the week.
Keep in mind, surf heights are measured on the face of the wave from trough to crest. Heights vary from beach to beach, and at the same beach, from break to break.
