Swell Summary
A small to moderate northwest swell is slated to arrive today and hold through Thursday. A very large north-northwest swell will then bring on the likelihood of warning level surf along the north and west facing shores of most islands Friday and the weekend. Surf along south facing shores may rise a foot or two late in the weekend due to winds blowing in from the south.
