Swell Summary
A large, medium period, west-northwest swell will peak tonight into Saturday morning, and decrease during the day Saturday. Hanalei buoy reports a spike in combined seas this afternoon. This swell should boost surf well into the advisory range for north and west facing shores as it spreads southeastward down the island chain. A High Surf Advisory is posted for north and west facing shores of Niihau, Kauai, Oahu, Molokai and north facing shores of Maui. West facing shores of the Big Island is also included in the current High Surf Advisory leftover the last declining swell, but is expected to trend up tonight and Saturday as the the new swell reaches the eastern end the state.
Deep low pressure presently situated just southeast of Russia's Kamchatka Peninsula will deliver a long period swell next week with forerunners arriving as early as Sunday night. This large, long period west-northwest swell is modeled to peak Monday night and hold through Tuesday before gradually declining through mid-week.
