Large and rough trade wind swell will continue along east facing shores through tonight, and the High Surf Advisory has been extended as a result. Surf will remain above seasonal levels Tuesday through late this week due to strong trades over and/or upstream of the islands. The greatest potential for a continuation of advisory level surf for east facing shores will be around Kauai and Oahu, potentially through late in the week.
A pair of northwest swells will give north shore surf a boost this week. The first swell will peak just below the advisory threshold today, then decline tonight and Tuesday. A second northwest swell will build on Wednesday, peak below advisory levels Thursday, and decline Friday. South facing shores will experience minimal surf this week.
