Swell Summary
Surf along east facing shores will remain small through the weekend, then quickly ramp up and become rough early next week due to strong easterly trades expected as Hurricane Dora passes far south of the islands. The largest surf is expected over the eastern end of the state, where heights may reach the warning level late Monday through Tuesday night. Advisory-level heights for east facing shores will be possible Tuesday into Wednesday on Oahu and Kauai. A downward trend is expected through the second half of the week as a more typical trade wind pattern returns and seas lower. Surf along south facing shores will remain small through Monday with mainly a combo of background south and south-southwest swell expected. An upward trend is possible late Monday through midweek as a short to medium period southeast swell arrives from Dora. A long-period south-southwest swell arriving later next week will lead to a rising trend for surf along south facing shores.
