Swell Summary
Background energy from the northwest will continue to linger along north facing exposures over the next few days. In the extended forecast, former Typhoon Guchol should send another out- of- season northwest (300-320 deg) swell to Hawaii this weekend. Surf along south facing shores will remain small throughout the week with a mix of small, long-period south and southwest (170-220 deg) swells. A slight increase in south swell energy is possible Tuesday into Wednesday. Surf along east facing shores will remain mostly steady this week, with only minor fluctuations in response to small changes in trade wind speeds.
