Swell Summary
Small to moderate north-northeast swells are expected to produce modest surf along north facing shores through Friday. Most of this swell energy is aimed east of the islands, which means the largest surf will likely be along north facing shores of the Big Island. A new, long-period northwest swell arriving this weekend may cause surf to reach the High Surf Advisory criteria along most north and west facing shores of the smaller islands from Saturday into Sunday. The gusty trade winds will continue to generate rough, slightly elevated surf along east facing shores during the next few days. Surf along south facing shores will remain small through early Friday. A small, long-period south-southwest swell arriving late Friday may boost surf heights along south facing shores this weekend.
