Swell Summary
A moderate, long period northwest (320 degree) swell is currently moving through the islands. Surf along north facing shores is expected to continue to trend upward slightly into this evening, peak tonight into early Tuesday, then begin to decline Tuesday afternoon. A High Surf Advisory remains in effect for north and west facing shores of Niihau, Kauai, Oahu, and Molokai, and for north facing shores of Maui through Tuesday. North and west shore surf will then drop off Tuesday night through Friday.
Small, medium period south swell energy will continue through the week with minor pulses of longer periods arriving tonight and again on Saturday. East shores will remain small due to light winds, but should begin to increase beginning Wednesday as trades strengthen.
