Swell Summary
A more significant long period south swell will fill in late tonight, reaching High Surf Advisory (HSA) levels for south facing shores on Sunday and Monday. West facing shores will see a decent south swell wrap, boosting surf heights as well, with the Big Island west facing shores likely reaching HSA levels on Sunday. A gradual downward trend is expected from Tuesday to Thursday.
Due to the strong trade winds upstream of the state, surf along east facing shores will remain rough and choppy through early next week.
