Large and rough surf will continue to affect east facing shores through the weekend, with only slight improvement expected early next week as the trade winds ease a bit over and upstream of the islands. A High Surf Warning remains posted through late this afternoon, which should lower to advisory levels tonight and Sunday. East shore surf will likely hold near or above advisory thresholds through late next week.
The current north swell will subside through the weekend. A long period northwest swell will build Sunday and peak Sunday night into Monday near or just below advisory levels along north and west facing shores. This swell will decline Monday night and Tuesday, with a new long period northwest swell building Wednesday, peaking below advisory levels Wednesday night into Thursday, then gradually lowering Thursday night into next weekend.
