Swell Summary
Flat conditions return to N shores tonight into next week as the existing tiny N swell fades. Short period surf trends up for E facing shores due to returning trades. Nearshore PacIOOS buoys at Barber's Point off of Oahu and Kaumalapau off of Lanai indicate tiny long period S swell dominating the medium to longer periods. This swell will generate small surf along S facing shores over the weekend with a downward trend expected early next week.
