Swell Summary
Surf heights will remain tiny for most shores through Wednesday. Surf heights will increase along north and west facing shores Wednesday night through Thursday as a brief north-northwest (330-340 deg) swell moves through the region. A larger north-northwest (330-340 deg) swell will arrive in the islands by early Saturday morning, producing moderate surf heights along north and west facing shores, before rapidly declining Saturday night through Sunday. A small background pulse of south swell will produce a slight bump to surf heights along south facing shores starting Wednesday afternoon, peaking by Friday, then slowly fading through the weekend.
